CZ 600 over the Savage but I preferred the CVA Cascade SB's 18" barrel, the CZ is long af at 24" both have fantastic triggers (slight edge to the externally adjustable CZ) and shoot sub-MOA.

. Slight edge to the CVA for action smoothness, it also had a better stock and buttpad. I only shot 556 through both, no issues, very well made guns especially for the price. Both mags fed fine but slight edge to the CZ, like how you can lock it in place. CVA has 10 round mags though.

. I got the CVA used for about $750, CZ was about the same brand new (at the time, on sale). Now they're overcharging with the 600+ models lol it's the exact same rifle without red Loctite on the barrel...
