I was talking with CZ in Kansas City on Thurs. and was told they have 33 of these in stock for immediate delivery.

Passing on for FYI.

Good to hear. There are also a couple of LH Model 70s for sale on Gunbroker.com and AuctionArms.com last I checked for around the same price.

A good thing for us lefties...

Nice rifles. I was lucky enough to find a dealer who had one on sale and picked one up for $999. Really enjoy mine but never would of bought one at the current selling price of approximately $1,800. Little "fat" but it soaks up the recoil nicely and love that fact it will hold five down.

I have no personal knowledge of this, but a fellow told me that the CZs continue to be rough operating with use, and his Ruger got smoother. I know about Rugers because I have several and they do get smoother if you'll sit down one evening watching TV and just continually cycle the bolt. Can anyone comment on the CZ?

Yeah, I own the CZ in .375H&H. Not sure about a rough action. Its built on a Mauser type action , and the feeding is as reliable as you want any DG rifle. Out the box , mine has not given me a minute's problems. The only problem I do have is the quality of the stock. Thinking about changing to Synthetic. But, then again, how many wooden stocks pass as a working rifle in Africa?
I would not hesitate to purchase another CZ.

Bud's has them for $1689.00, still pricey.

Although the round count in my CZ is low the bolt has been cycled many more times. It is way smoother than any of the Rugers I own. Not one hiccup or bind while feeding or extracting.
Others seem to hate the set trigger but so far I enjoy it as it makes shooting off the bench a little easier.
One of these days it will go in to have the barrel shortened to 22 inches.

There is nothing else on the market like it for anywhere near the MSRP that is a lefty 375, holds 5 down, with the receiver notched for scope rings. The three leaf Safari sights might be over kill, but it looks cool

My LH CZ 375 is as slick is can be, it has the AHR upgrades. I also have LH MRC in a 458 Lott. With hindsight being 20-20 I would have bought two CZs and re-barrelled one to 458 Lott.

IMO the CZ is a much better firearm than the MRC.
