One of our fellow members and a Tennessean, invited me down to his range yesterday where I met him and his Father. After sighting in my two rifles, I had the pleasure of shooting their customized CZ's. I must say I liked the feel and looks of both the .375 H&H and the .416 Rigby. Both men are competent reloaders and had a variety of bullets. Recoil wasn't bad on the .416 Rigby. I did wear a shoulder pad (just in case) and that rifle was Mag-na-ported. I shot both rifles standing at targets from 50 to 200 yards. I was impressed with the accuracy. Scopes were 1.5 x 5 Leupold; rings were by Warne (detachable). Both were CRF and stocks were Walnut, finished smooth with nice checkering. Mark said he could remove his scope within 10 seconds and he practices this while jogging. His open sights are then available. I like the CZ mounts. Allowing one to use detachable scope rings or swap scopes within minutes is an excellent idea for those that want to hunt PG after their Buff/Ele hunt is over. I'm going to follow suit and get a CZ. Well worth the money and I personally love a bolt action rifle.

Could bring my 1863 Springfield. It shoots a .579 minie  Enjoyed the shoot and I may be able to use my Winslow stock. It holds a 308 Norma mag right now but if a CZ action will fit I will have it replaced. The action is an FN 98 Mauser.
