a word from the president...
During my latest safari in South Africa I had the
oppor tunity to compare my CZ Safari Classics rifle
chambered in .450 Rigby to its predecessor, a Brno
602 chambered in .458 WinMag, Made in 1984, the
Brno 602 is still in daily ser vice with my PH. Time has
put several scratches on the stock and the bluing on the
metal par ts has worn of f, but the majestic look of the
rifle and the achievements and hunting stories behind
it make me ver y proud to be associated with CZ.
At CZ-USA we are ready to meet your African hunting
needs, we build reliable rifles to your specifications
and we will help you select the accessories you need
for your hunting trip, all to make sure that your African
experience will be rewarding and unforgettable.

ABOUT SAFARI CLASSICS
African hunting is considered one of the most exciting and rewarding in all hunting.
Africa is a continent blessed with the richest variety of game, ranging from the
smallest of antelope to the biggest and toughest of them all, the Cape Buf falo,
Rhino and African Elephant.
It is here where ever y hunter longs to be, matching his skills against those of his
quarr y… it is here where hunters demand a lot from their rifles.
Ceska Zbrojovka’s dangerous game rifles also known
as Brno or ZKK rifles have been a common sight in rifle
racks across the African continent for more than 30
years. The reliability and features of the CZ 550 Safari
Magnum action prove on daily basis that it is one of the
best-suited for the pursuit of dangerous game.
We have brought the life-long experience and heritage of safari hunters together
with the demand for traditional African calibers. Based on the Mauser-type
action, CZ 550 safari rifles of fer time-honored features including claw extractors,
controlled round feeding, drop box magazines allowing for one extra round, fixed
ejectors, positive safeties and single set triggers.
Rifles, ammo, and accessories for your next safari are available from one source.

INSIDE CZ 550 ACTION
The CZ single set trigger (SST) system provides the shooter with the
options to ef fectively handle any shooting situation they are presented
with.
The CZ 550 is a Mauser type action.The Mauser 98 action established itself as a
viable alternative to the double rifle due to its reliable feeding function over 100
years ago.
The SST allows for both a standard hunting trigger and a light target
trigger in the same rifle. By operating the rifle in the same manner as
any other bolt-action rifle, the trigger is in the “standard” mode with the
heavier of the two trigger pulls. By simply pushing the trigger for ward
until it “clicks” the crisp and light target trigger mode is set.
A - Square bridge receiver with 19mm dovetail | B - Single set trigger (some say it is a better aid
to accuracy than a thousand dollar scope; single set trigger comes standard in all CZ center fire
rifles and it is up to the shooter to decide whether he is going to use it or not. It is fully adjustable
by the user from the outside and you just simply push the trigger for ward till you hear click and
your trigger becomes a light target trigger) | C - Iron sights (folding 3 leaf express style sights
are dovetailed into an integral boss on the barrel and are far sturdier than the typical set found
on most production rifles) | D - Open grip cur ve on stock (minimizes the stress to the middle
finger by the trigger guard bow while the gun is in the recoil phase) | E - Barrel band sling
mounting point | F - Hammer forged barrel
It has been said that the single set trigger is a better aid to accuracy than
a thousand dollar scope.

The Professional Hunter Proficiency Exam in Zimbabwe
tests the skills of the soon to be PH. This exam combined
with the Rifa Professional Hunter and Guides training/
refresher course provides an insightful glimpse into the
rifles these dangerous game professionals trust their lives
to as well as those of their clients. According to Don Heath,
Editor of African Hunter Magazine, the CZ is by far the most
common make seen at the exam.
CZ, BRNO, ZKK rifles - all these names point to one gun
factor y located in the Czech Republic with 70 years of histor y
and tradition of gun making. CZ 550 actions are revered the

The modern medium car tridges can surely kill dangerous game,
but there is a vast dif ference between shooting an undisturbed
animal, compared to a charging one or a wounded beast. In this
case stopping power is the most impor tant criteria. Safety must
always come first and the rifle that is capable of delivering results
is imperative.

The .404 Jef fer y was introduced in 1909 by Jef fer y of England to
duplicate .450/400 (3 ¼”) per formance in a car tridge designed for
bolt action rifles. The .404 drives a 400 grain bullet at a muzzle
velocity of 2170 fps.
The .450 Rigby is based on the classic .416 Rigby case. While it
is has been around for only just over 10 years, this car tridge has
gained a reputation as the most ef fective dangerous game stopping
car tridge for standard magnum sized actions. The 465 grain bullet
delivers over 2300 fps at the muzzle.
The .505 Gibbs was developed as a proprietar y car tridge for use in
the Mauser type bolt action rifles by George Gibbs around 1910. The
bullet weight is 525 grains and it leaves the muzzle at 2300 fps.
CZ-USA of fers its own headstamped ammunition (loaded by A Square) to complement the Safari Classic rifles. The Monolithic
Solids are craf ted from a single alloy for superior strength, rigidity
and hardness for the ultimate in deep, bone-crushing penetration.
Dead Tough Sof t Points are great all-around big-game bullets for
deep penetration and controlled expansion.
