RE: I need a .375 H&H
 

The CZ trigger is excellent...Don't let the fact that it can be used as a set trigger scare you off...No need to use the set feature if you don't want to...The trigger can be easily adjusted for a nice crisp, single stage pull..

I have a CZ 550 in 9.3 x 62... I do like the single set trigger for shooting off the bench, but I use the trigger like a regular single stage trigger while hunting..

Czs are a good value for the $$...They are well made an tend to be very accurate..My 9.3 groups like a varmint rifle with Barnes 250 grain TSX and full hunting loads..

Just wondering, but why don't you like them? I've never used one...

Hope I didn't offend you... <<blush>>....

There is such a wide span of expertise on this forum, from young folks just getting started to grizzled old veterans...

RE: I need a .375 H&H
 

What about something like a Sako 85 Safari (.375 H&H). It's sort of a CRF, and definitely has a decent trigger. Seems like I recently read an article by Craig Boddington that Sako has also recently developed a new round (sort of like a .370... 9.3 X 66 or similar) that's 30-06 size with ballistics equaling a .375 H&H. I'm thinking it was in Guns and Ammo mag. Anyway, food for thought.

Kimber's "Talkeetna" I think essentially is a win model 70 action...in synthetic stainless......not crazy about the stock color in person....but pretty sweet set up.

Otherwise.... CZ and Ruger make a decent rifle. btw when I say ruger...I mean a ruger mk II magnum in .375H&H not .375Ruger. So comparing that rifle, and CZ's fancy grade, and kimbers talkeetna they're all in the same price range give/take.

Kimber has a Caprivi too in wood...but I think its another grand more...

I too agree about the M70 in .375 H&H if they made one in the right configuration, or heck just one at all I'd be very very tempted to pick it up.

have you thought about a Remington model 700 XCR? You can even get a 375 RUM.

If you were gonna get any .375 other than an H&H I would say it would have to be a .375 Ruger, personally I think the .416 Ruger is the Ruger to get...the H&H is too successful.

I wish we could email Winchester....I haven't found a way to yet, and tell them build a M70 in .375H&H, .416Ruger or Rigby, and in .458 Lott.

I know this tends to not be a big part of the rifle market, but for Winchester everyone seems to want a new M70 in a big bore...

I agree with you Ron, get a controlled feed...I almost bought that talkeetna in the fall for a buffalo hunt, ended up just using the .340wby. I just wish that stock color wasn't so blueish grey, perhaps you can do an aftermarket job to it, but for that price I wish it was perfect from the get go. Funny how its always the little things that turn you off to something...

btw when/if winchester does finally start making some M70 big bores....they'll probably lack something I consider a "requirement"

RE: I need a .375 H&H
 

Have you thought about a double rifle? Or an older Model 70 in .375 H&H?

RE: I need a .375 H&H

RE: I need a .375 H&H
 

Doesn't Browning make a 375 H&H in their stainless stalker?

RE: I need a .375 H&H
 

Yes, but the poster wanted a CRF.
