the 550 magnum action was made, for awhile, in 300win,.. that is to say, not the medium.

it is the same action of the 375, 416, and nore 450/505/500 stuff..

You can make nearly anything from it

Thank you for responding to think of the 375 Ruger will make a custom action with this patriot

IMO it would be a little of a waste to put the .375 Ruger on that action. The Ruger was designed for standard length actions of the .30-06 size whereas the CZ is so much bigger than what is needed for the Ruger.

I agree and even the .375H&H is too small for that action, a very good one, IMHO. I had a Brno 602 in .375H&H for awhile, but, got rid of it and went to P-64s in that chambering, which are ideal.

I would go with a .404 Jeffrey or .416 Rigby or perhaps a .458Lott, if you want a heavy rifle and a .375RUM if you want a .375 bore size...this, btw, is what a friend uses guiding Polar Bear tours in the Canadian arctic and this is a sound use for that action.

Any of those 3 are much more suited for your action.
