CZ 550 FS
Product Description

The CZ 550 FS features a classic Bavarian-style Mannlicher stock, steel muzzle cap and a 3-position safety. This safety is unique in the CZ line to the FS and Carbine - Kevlar models. It locks the bolt and is on 'safe' when fully to the rear, remains on 'safe' with the bolt unlocked for unloading in the mid position and is ready to fire with the bolt unlocked in the forward position.

While the aesthetics of this model remind us of rifles from times gone by, with its short 20.6" barrel, fast handling stock and iron sights, it is even today perhaps the most appropriate configuration for quick shots required when hunting in dense cover.

      This was my second safari to Tanzania. My first ended with a beautiful Rungwa lion taken with my CZ 550 .375 H&H. This hunt, in the Selous, began with a wonderful tusker on day one, using my CZ 550 in .416 Rigby. Both rifles have taken multiple game including cape buffalo, crocodile, sable, hippo and other plains game. I love Africa, and I love my CZ's. My favorites of all my many rifles.

      I own a 6.5X55SE and have always said that people who shoot game at 400+ yards were more than not telling stories. Well I'm going to have to apolize to some people I know! I have never tried to shoot at a target over about 250 yards until today. I just didn't think I would be able to hit the center of the target. Today I shot 550 yards for fun and hit the target dead center 5 times in a row. I admit the wind had dropped off, My 550 FS preformed like a champ. P.S I was using my iron sights. What a great feeling! I have had the Gun for about 11 yrs and I guess I will not be so worried about missing with my scope at the longer distances. GOOD Gun!!!!!

      I have always loved the lines of Mannlicher-Schönauer carbine, and the 550 FS reminds me of that great rifle. I purchased one in 2006, and love shooting it. I have taken many deer with it, hunting out of a blind in northern Minnesota where shots are rarely beyond 100 meters. I got a .270 Win, and kind of wish I got the 6.5 Swede instead, which would fit this style of rifle better.

      Nice 8 point in November 2007. Taken with a CZ550 FS in 270 WIn at 90 yards. One shot with a Barnes TSX 130 grain. Since then I have added more 550 Full Stocks in 7x57 and 9.3x62. Next will be the 550 in 9.3x62 in a Kevlar stock. Great rifle at fair price. Best wood and finish on the market for the cost.

      I have owned my 550 FS in 6.5X55 for six years now. After some serious testing (with factory ammunition), I have been able to consistently shoot 3/8" groups with this rifle at 100 yards. At 200 yards, due mostly to my aging eyes, the groups open-up to 1 1/8". Awsome accuracy for any factory rifle. This rifle is terrific medicine for deer and feral hogs; and I've never needed more than one round to do the job. It is certainly my "pet" rifle. All of this accuracy, and with its dark wood and Bavarian styling- beautiful.

      My CZ 550 FS Lux in 6.5 x 55 is superb. A 1 1/4 in group @ 200 Yds is the best result I've ever had with any hunting rifle, and it has a carbine length barrel. An exceptional rifle at a reasonable price. Thanks CZ!
