Just my observation. I have a CZ, 455-FS and I like it. It's assuredly accurate. My beef with them is compared to a real Mannlicher/Schoenauer the stocks are pretty clubby....too thick in the forearm. They could lose at least 1/8 inch of wood.
This. A common failing of full-stocked rifles that a lot of folks just don't understand, and why most commercial full-stocks look like a 2x4 and feel like one in the hand. And how did full-stocked rifles all come to be known as "Mannlichers" in the dim dark past anyway? A lot of Mannlichers were made with half-stocks too. What did they call them before Steyr put their first one on a Mannlicher-Schoenauer?
