Model 3 or 550 American?????
« on: April 10, 2006, 04:06:22 AM »
Okay, I have the opportunity to pick up a Model 3 in 300 WSM or a 550 American in .308. I can get the Model 3 for close to cost. Not much of a call for 300 WSM in CT. Someone ordered it and then didn't want it. The stock is awesome looking. I don't need either one but they look soooooo nice! I can only afford 1!!!!!!

I know that they no longer make the Model 3 and that it was made by Montana Gun, I think. What my big question is the trigger. I'm spoiled by my Tikka trigger, so smooth and crisp. How does the CZ stack up??? I believe that the Model 3 is a standard trigger and the 550 has a set trigger.

Be carefull the set trigger on a CZ is very addictive.

Either rifle is good, but it comes down to caliber for me. I just don't like them short mags. I would get the CZ in that case.  :D
