I've been sending emails to CZ for over a year trying to get them to import a true short action. (see wishbone) I have two Brno 601s, one in 223 and the other in 243. Both are excellent rifles once you do a trigger job. The other option as of this month is a Montana Rifle Company action which is a true short Mauser type action. Accubond stocks is a dealer for them and they have a deal of a bbl, stock, and action for $750. Sort of a custom rifle kit. I'm going to try a 300 Savage on one of these.
