My dream rifle but would just be a safe queen unfortunately. Still gotta have one though.
Fired a mates BRNO and it was stunningly accurate and not unpleasant.
What have people got and are they getting used?
What type of hunting experiences have you had with your rifles here and offshore?
Any preferences between Sako and BRNO/CZ?

That's kiwi Greg's.
Then they will be very good rifles.
The Zkk602 also has the set trigger installed.

I would buy Kiwi Gregs BRNO 602 if I didn't have the calibres either side.
I like my 602 just a tad more than my 550.
+1 on Greg's 602
Ha ha from a Sako man....Quote:

I have another one sitting in customs at the moment, really don't "need" three 375 H&Hs :thumbsup:
I have a Brno 602 in 375 good fun on pigs and water buffalo in Northern Territory, good rifles.
@john m what do you think the 602 has over the 550?Quote:

The 602 has the European style stock and is slimmer than the 550 it just feels better to me. Cross bolts are not fitted to 602 375 rifles the walnut was a better grade.
I like the simpler look of the 602 action.

The Kevlar stock is also slimmer and feels good but I dont like the 550 actions used as an advertising bill board.

The difference in the end is a personal choice and the Brno 602 gets a couple of extra ticks from me.
There are different grades & species of wooden stocks & two different styles of those stocks.
I have an old Winchester M70 Super Express 375.
Great fun!
