ZKK602 vs CZ550?

I love the set trigger on my 550. I also have the double set triggers on both my sporting 98’s in 7 and 8mm. Those I use very sparingly as they measure pull in ounces. I never shoot the set triggers with gloves on as that is just asking for trouble.
 
Back in about 1983 I ordered in two ZKK602 Brno's, a 375H+H and .458WM. Recall shop got me them for $475 each approx. The .375 functioned ok out of the box but required hours of cycling the bolt with bore scrubber to smooth out. The .458 was so rough it could not chamber a round. Working the ramp eventually helped but it was always a rough SOB. Dumped them both within a couple years. Typical commie "cold war" quality IMHO.
Havent handled a 550 but I've heard good reviews and they sure look nice in pics. I suspect the earlier pre-1980's ZKK' Brno's were a little better finished. The Brno's of the 50's are second to none, just lovely, I have two 7X57's.
My opinion of course.

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
