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.

We 'll visit Livingstone / Vic Falls for 3 days and 2 nights. Back to Mapcha by car, back to WDH with Airlink (grab my rifles and belongings) and the same day back to Frankfurt.
What do you mind from your own experience ? and your wife .? Did she appreciate ?
We already hunted Namibia in 2022, May for PG near Outjo for 8 days. Great country.
Thank you for your advises.

Hello Cecil
I am Philippe from Center of France. I plan to hunt Zambezi with Zana Botes in 2026, Oct after a couple of days for PG in Namibia in his lodge. I will be with my wife. She is not really a huntress and we promised to go visit Vic Falls. I imagine to go to Caprivi by car , hunt there 7 days (for buff) and go by car to Vic falls (PH will bring back my rifle) . sorry I am required to write 2 messages
