caliber and purpose? that will define WHICH CZ and WHICH ruger.. for example, a CZ 550 magnum in 458 lott, in this question, could be compared to a ruger 77 in 223, and fit the bill jeffe opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

I like both........................but prefer the cz 550 due to the fact they don't have the angled action screw and also have the mauser self locking extractor set up which I don't think the Ruger has. I also like the set trigger on the cz's al though most hate them. I own a few cz's as well as a Ruger stainless laminate .338 win mag (third Ruger I have owned and this one is a keeper). Either gun is good but I do prefer the cz 550 but probably like the ruger saftey better. | |||

in 30-06 the ruger will be lighter, have a better safety, and a decent shaped stock. If you fall to 308, the ruger will be at least a pound lighter. unless it's a bigbore, I am not passionate about CZs, though.. jeffe opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

Ha. Everyone has their preferences. I prefer the CZ 550: good straight stock, 2-position safety.

Never saw a Ruger M77 that looked like this . http://www.australianhunting.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=9901&start=0 The hunting imperative was part of every man's soul; some denied or suppressed it, others diverted it into less blatantly violent avenues of expression, wielding clubs on the golf course or racquets on the court, substituting a little white ball for the prey of flesh and blood.

Bush, that's a fair piece of wood, about average for a ruger RSM, though not the standard 77 but, then again, have a look.. i need to do some "now it's finished" pics http://www.weaponsmith.com/AR-rounds1.html opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

My vote is for the CZ 550. I have owned both, the CZ 550 and Ruger Mark II. I just happen to like the accuracy I get with my rifles and I think that they just look good. That said, Ruger has nothing to be ashamed of. Like it has been said a million times before, go to a gunshop and handle both of them before making a decision. Someone other than yourself telling you which brand of rifle to get is like asking a stranget to go out and find you a wife. We can tell you what turns our crank, but what makes you happy is a completely different matter. Tom Purdom | |||

I have owned both. The CZ is an excellent weapon, and so is the Ruger. Never had any throuble with either brand. The Ruger M77 has an excellent reputation among guides & outfitters in Alaska as being one of the toughest of all rifles...... Personally, I consider Alaska to be one of the most punishing environments in the world for ruining equipment! "Bitte, trinks du nicht das Wasser. Dahin haben die Kuhen gesheissen." | |||
