To answer your question quickly:NO(at least that I know of)

If you're a tinkerer or have the local smith can do this: Mc Millan, and a few others have Mauser-98 stocks. The major difference is the CZ trigger-guard is narrower than a M-98 thus a simple filling the voided space and spray the modified region with this company touch-up spray paint and you're in business. BUT before doing this when ordering your stock EXPRESS your dissapointment to the stock making company, sooner or later they'll finish by understanding that this rifle is as popular (in Europe and gaining popularity in North America) as the Winchester model 70.

A company by the name Richards micro-fit(sorry only wood stocks) started supplying customers with NEW CZ-452 stocks(which they started up just for the U.S. before this after-market stocks were unavailable), I'm sure that the person responsible for the decision making for Richards must have had doubts as to start a new stock series BUT let me tell you that his doubts are long gone .

We're a bit of trend setters here(U.S.) as Europe has had these rifles for a long time.

Hope I did'nt dissapoint you?

I hear McMillan makes one for the CZ550. Go to their web site and check out the "AHR" used by American Hunting Rifles, a semi-custom builder that uses CZ550 actions for their rifles.

If you would be interested in a laminate stock, which has the warmth and beauty of a traditional wood stock with the strength and warp resistsnce of a synthetic, then check out a company called ACRA-Bond laminates. They make stocks at various levels of finish for most rifles including the 550. I'm having one made for my safari 550 magnum. The process they use yields a stock that looks more like a straight grain walnut than a traditional laminate.
