Otherwise known as their Model 85. Not going to repeat my impressions, overall this rifle is like the Model 70 I talked about under the "Zastava left hand Mauser" thread. Big stock with great ergonomics and enough wood for two trim stocks, all milled steel metalwork with very nice exterior finish that needs some polish in the action, etc.

The barreled action is very trim, the whole rifle with that big stock only weighs 6 1/4 pounds and I'm betting 2 1/4 pounds of that is the wood. The barrel is 20" and slender, tapering to .55" at the muzzle. But enough words when pictures are worth a thousand of them.

The wood doesn't have the figure and dark color of the 7X57 but it's a nice straight grained piece and well laid out.

Action, left and right. You can see there is certainly enough wood there.

Sized just right for a .223.

The inletting on this one is better than the 7X57, that's a fully free floated barrel.
