Just handled a CZ 375 with the American stock. I was at a gun show and did not ask to have the security tab removed so that I could work the action, but the gun handled beautifully and fits my face very well. The wood execution was fair -- cheesy checkering and not the best wood to metal fit, but for the price, it seemed to be a lot of rifle. Guy was asking just over $800 NIB.
Tempting.
Would one of these in this caliber still need bedding?

Just a heads up. The 375H&H American normally goes new in the box at gunbroker for $729. My dealer said $679 plus shipping. I think they are good for the money. I have small hands and like the feel of the M70 or Whitworth better.

Bill,

I like caz's and own 5 of them, there will be more in my future.....after I get my varmint guns sorted out.

There solid and accurate, I am a contented cz owner, many will both agree and disagree with me.

Thanks guys. Called my regular gun guy and he said his cost is about $680, so I can get it cheaper from him with a small markup.
PC: Have you had to do any tweaking with your big-bore CZ's? Bedding, feed rail cleanup, trigger work, etc.?

All of the above... so plan on spending a few-hundred extra to get it in "working order."

My .375 just bedded it, my .458 win mag went in and got the lott treatment so I have rails etc. doen as well as bedding and two extra cross bolts. My .416 had a composite stock added and the c-clip attended to, and my 9.3 was bedded and c-clip done.

My Hornet has had nothing done to it.

Bill, I took my CZ 375 straight from the dealer to the gunsmith to have it bedded. Had to take it back to have the action and safety smoothed. I would not hesitate to do it again, it is very, very nice to shoot and holds 1 to 1&1/2 MOA all day long. If I take my time off the bench it shoots better, but I try to practice from "field" positions after it's sighted in. I put a Leupold 1.5-5x20 on it and I wish I would have put a 2.5-8 or 3-9, it shoots very well at long distances but I have trouble seeing that far with the low magnification. Go buy one, you won't regret it! Joe

Yes I agree. You will like it. It will likely take a bit of tweaking to get it to perform to the best standards. I had mine bedded and restocked. The firing pin spring had to be replaced on my 416. It would not have been a good place to find out that I had a questionable spring if I was looking through the sights at Mbogo. Shoot it a bunch before going after DG.

Idaily shoot a cz 602 and some of my phs have cz 550 or 602 in 375hyh i have mine since a lot of yaers ago and it never failed its very ,very accurate,and with one of them i won a lot of local big game rifle tournaments its the best rifle for the price quality relation,besides its cold forged barrel ca be compared with any barrel,you dont need to bed it ,i use mine in sawps hunting water buffalo and its accuracy is oustanding.juan
