[QUOTE="calling4life, post: 2190803, member: 48454"] Went CZ550 in 458 lott myself, no intention of hunting Africa. Sticking with shallow V rear and big white dot up front for now, have a big green dot front too that I may sight in as well since I have extra rear sights. Just wanted to say they are fun, I put a bell and carlson stock on it, added the Limbsaver Nitro recoil pad, bell and carlson added a mercury recoil reducer and it's only like $55 more, and then I ground out part of the inside forearm of the stock and bedded lead in there with devcon aluminum. Barreled action is cerakoted, muzzle brake was added as well, only 10 1/2lbs, was actually hoping for 12, but this worked out fine. So it's an all-weather gun now, not nearly as classic looking, but functional as all get out and she's fun. Federal 500gr trophy bonded bearclaws are what I am using. But if a guy reloaded you could likely load some 300gr triple shocks to about 3,000fps or so if you wanted. Not to steer you away from an insanely popular caliber that's sufficient for most everything on the planet... Good luck, have fun with it, these big bores are good fun to shoot. Hoping to turn mine into a 505 Gibbs some day, 570gr A frame at about 2500 fps would be neat. [/QUOTE]
