Stock Options for the CZ 550?

[DougD]

I'm trying to find a stock similar to these for a CZ 550. CZ-USA does not offer these in America.

Even if I cannot find a stock with the Bavarian "hogback," I would still like to have a sporting type stock. I have looked at Richards Microfit Gunstocks but they don't float my boat. Two questions:

1- Are there any other stock options for the CZ550?

2- Will sporter stocks for the 98 Mauser accept the 550 action?

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

Other than full blown custom, not that I'm aware of.

2- Will sporter stocks for the 98 Mauser accept the 550 action?

I don't think so. I just took a look at my T38 Mauser (Turk copy of the 98) and my CZ550 American (6.5x55mm SE). Eyeballing it, the ring at the front of the reciever on the Turk appears larger than the 550's, and the (sorry I don't know the proper term) bridge on the underside of the reciever that retains it in the stock both with the forward screw and reacts the recoil are significantly different dimensions (smaller on the Turk). Also a lot of the detail (e.g. blot release, safety, trigger group, bolt, etc) are all different and some of those would affect stock details quite a bit. Plus the barrel at the chamber/throat area has a larger OD in the Turk.

I think there is (or was) someone on this sight with a stock duplicating machine. If you can track him down, or someone else that does the same thing, if you pay shipping both ways and have the guy fix a few dings in my stock I might be able to send my 550 Medium stock to the guy so you can have it duplicated. It looks just like the second of the two pictures in your post.

I believe HS precision makes Varmint stocks for CZ 550's, but I don't think they offer a Bavarian hogback.

Just take the stock stock, yes that is redundant. Polish it with pumice, rotten stone, and linseed oil and you will see a big improvement.
