The CZ 550 Safari Magnum uses a Mauser-pattern, controlled-round-feed action with a fixed ejector for reliable feeding and extraction with dangerous-game cartridges. Its square-bridge receiver incorporates integral dovetail scope bases, giving a stable mounting interface while preserving the rifle’s classic lines.
The 25-inch hammer-forged barrel is chambered in .458 Win. Mag., with an unthreaded muzzle. Express sights include a hooded ramp-mounted front blade and a rear express leaf with a standing 100 and folding 200 leaves, providing fast, clear sight pictures at practical hunting distances.
An internal box magazine with a floorplate provides a 4-round capacity. The rifle is fitted with a walnut stock featuring a pistol grip, crisp checkering, sling swivel studs, and a rubber recoil pad. Length of pull measures 14.0 inches.
