Range report on my CZ 550 416 Rigby :)
« on: March 09, 2006, 12:24:09 PM »
I went to the range today to sight in my CZ 550  416 Rigby.
I got it on paper and made adjustments at 25 yards. I then moved out to 100 yards and zeroed the gun in 1 inch high. I did a 3 shot group and got a 1 inch group. I did another 3 shot group when the barrel cooled and got another 1 inch group at 100 yards. The gun is awesome. I have a Leupold VXIII 1.5X5X20mm and was using Norma brass and 300 gr. Barnes X bullets. I shot a total of 50 rounds. The mercury recoil suppressor I installed in the stock helped with the recoil, I am not going to install a muzzle break on it. The glass bedding and floating the barrel worked great.  Now to take it on a hunt.  :D

Did you get the American Safari Mag or the Safari Mag?Which stock did you get on it a laminate, plain wood or fancy wood (upgrade)?  I am thinking hard about buying the American Safari Mag in 375H&H in a fancy wood as I have a 416 in plain wood and the wood is just that...plasin jane

I have the Safari Mag with the plain wood Hogback stock. I am very inpress with the accuracy. I think any more my big bore guns will come from CZ.  :D
