Need some scope rings for a CZ 550?
« on: May 29, 2006, 03:24:38 PM »
It is a 9.3x62 in a FS ( full stock).  Recoil is between a 30-06 200gr and a 300 Win Mag with 286 grain bullets.  Sure flattened a 400lb black bear on the spot, no tracking!!!   Buckfever

I have the factory CZ rings on my CZ 550 in 416 Rigby, and they are working great.  :D

Factory rings on my CZ Safari in .375 H&H, two elk hunts, many practice rounds, no problems.

I got some Talley quick release rings for my CZ 550 in 458 Lott.  They don't even get loose under that substantial recoil.

Hello Buckfever...congratulations on that big bear!... Besides the rings mentioned above,rings for the Bruno/CZ's are made by Warne,Lynx Mounts, B-Square and Leupold....Warne and B-Square make low mounts as well as higher mounts...If you get the low mounts you will have to grind a little off on your bolt handle....not a big job at all as that is what I did on several of my Bruno's as I prefer lower rings....I will also have to grid the bolt on my CZ550FS if I use the lower Warne rings on it.....How much you have to grind off depends on the size of the scopes eye objective....I'm using a Leupold 1.5X5 which has a fairly small eye obj. but is a little short in lenght......I think the 1.75X6 would have been a better choice.....
Edit: after looking in another catalog I find that the Lynx Mounts/ Rings seem to be a B-Square model....I'm looking for a set of medium rings myself for a Bruno 21H in 8mm that has a butter knife bolt handle that I don't want to modify.......
