Guys,
Up until this point I have never had a gun that wouldn't shoot better than 1.5 MOA (and that's not a huge demand). However, I bought a new CZ 550 .243 Win. a few months ago and it has given me nothing but grief...I love the gun's craftmanship but can hit the broad side of a barn at 100 yards. My point of impact is all over the place. I have check my scope mounts (sitting in the rings is a Burris Fullfield II Bal. Plex) and everything appears to be tight. However, the stock is not free floated as stated. The left side of the stock is pressed pretty tight against the barrel and the right side is free floated. A $1 bill hangs on the left side everytime I try checking. Therefore, what in your opinion is it going to take to get this POS to shoot? Does the barrel channel need to be inletted some more? Should I have it glass bedded? How much am I looking at here in order to get it to shoot? I'm thoroughly sick as I wanted an accurance coyote gun and went with an off brand....I do love my CZ 452 .22 though. Anyone else having these problems with their CZ 550?
P.S. One last thing, one thing I can't stand when someone works on my guns, cars, etc. are dinged up screws, etc. Can I expect that if I take this to a decent gunsmith that it will still look as though it came from the factory? Any info. appreciated...
