Never actually hunted with it since I''ll probably never get to Africa ]although this would be a great grizzly/brown bear gun[ but am impressed with the features and the quality of the wood ]Turkish Walnut in this particular model[. Good value compared with other over-the-counter rifles in this caliber. This particular stock shape supposedly recoils worse than the standard American stock profile since it drops more at the heel, but I don''t think the recoil is that dramatic, especially after shooting a Granite Mountain Arms/Joe Smithson rifle in .585 GMA. Overall I think CZ has done a good job with this model and caliber, especially for the money.
