Contemplating this...Does anyone have a CZ550 in 300 H&H (or 300 win mag) like this that they would be willing to part with? I don't know what the cost would be to buy one now, may be too rich for my blood. Worth a shot though.

Otherwise, I thought about buying one of the CZ actions Wayne at AHR has for sale and piecing together the rest over time.

Have you looked at the Remington 721s? I was chatting with a member here and he said the 721s in 300 H&H are shooters (accurate). They are not luxurious rifles, but they can be found for under 1k. Just a though.

Any idea what Wayne is charging for those actions?

Waynes price for an action with his safety and trigger is super reasonable for what you’ll get, particularly compared to what a donor rifle would run you right now. I’ve a 300 win mag safari magnum that Wayne did a number 2 upgrade on for me and it’s a dream of a rifle. You’ll be happy having one built, even with lugging the weight around.

Wayne is charging $1000 for action and an additional $500 for 3 pos safety and trigger swap. A solid deal on both options.

That is a solid deal considering they are no longer made. Thank you!
 
I am really leaning that way, for the CZ action from Wayne that is. I could be waiting forever for a rifle to pop up again. I figure I can build as I have funds, buy the action, refund my account, buy a barrel, and so forth.
I did ask Wayne about those actions, and he recommended a Noah Hathorne in Plains Montana for the gunsmithing (barrel, feeding, etc.) Does anyone know this gunsmith? I cannot seem to find anything.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .

I have quite a bit of 458 win mag brass, most of it new. How much are you looking for?
