I own a stainless Savage Storm. Very accurate, but action is not very smooth. Sits beside the back door in case a critter, coyote, hog, etc shows up across the pond.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Haven't seen a LH Sako. That would be a good score.

Seriously? I was looking for a CZ 527 just this morning.

I still dont understand why CZ can not design a .223 that has an internal magazine that is flush with the bottom of the stock and can hold 4 rounds. Owned a CZ .204 and .223 and could never warm up to the look.

I'm concerned about the future of LH rifles at CZ. There are no LH rimfire rifles shown on their website currently. Only 1 LH 527 and that is in 223. This isn't going the right direction for lefties of the world.

Seems most lefties are there own worse enemy. We have the dedicated hard core shooters like the ones on this forum but for the most part lefties buy right hand rifles. In the last few years lost the Ruger stainless line, all Remingtons, and now most of what CZ used to build. Before that Winchester caved and ended production. Main brands now are Tikka, Browning, Savage, Sako, Cooper and a Ruger now and then. Looks like things are getting worse than better.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.
