Got the '05 CZ catalog in the mail today. In the section on the new Safari Classics they state:

"The .450 Rigby was originally developed for double rifles and has been in use for over a century now."

Hello! This ain't the .450 Nitro! The .450 Rigby is a very recent developement specifically for magazine rifles. I applaud CZ for chambering for the .404, .450 & .505 but they should at least get their facts straight. I also don't see enough difference in the Classic and the standard Safari to justify the price. I realize it'll be a special order item but I sure wish the .404 was offered in the much more affordable model!

What is the price for the new calibers in the 2005 catalog?


Thanks

Are they using the CZ550 action for the 505 or a Montana Rifleman action (as they are for the Model 3)?
