550 magnum
The CZ-550 is a bolt-action hunting rifle series manufactured by Česká zbrojovka Uherský Brod (CZ UB). The CZ 550 series is available with a medium or magnum sized action. The CZ 550 rifle is based on the Mauser 98 rifle.
Since the CZ 550 magnum size action can be chambered for super magnum cartridges some elephant gun wildcat cartridges were tested and others specially designed (see .600 Overkill) with and for this action.
Looking to build a 550 magnum rifle off a Weatherby or savage 111-112 action the .338 lapua action savage makes.
questions I have are:
has anyone make the brass from 460 Weatherby? if so what was the best way you found to do it?
what molds for cast bullets do you recommend? or other pre made...
Looking to buy some ammo or brass for ether 460 Weatherby or 550 magnum for a project I am working on.
also need dies and projectiles as well. Basically any part of the project. The rifle, brass, ammo, dies.
Any info would also be appreciated.
