CZ rifle shooters

Post by Rich V »

I would be interested to know what you guys, that shoot CZ rifles use for a COAL and the type of bullet you use. My best group so far has been using a 32 gr. BK an a COAL of 2.280.

I'm at 2.320 with the 39 gr. Sierra B.K. in my 527 Varmint and American because that's all the clip will allow.
Enjoy it while you have it, because things will change.

I've had good results using H-4895 @ 27.7 grains, Sierra BK 39 gr. at 2.455 COAL. Of course, this will not fit the clip so I use a Calhoon single shot follower. If an unfired round needs to be unloaded, I remove the bolt with the round held in the ejector as the tip of the bullet will not clear the port when the bolt is fully at the rear. As you might guess, this is my target and varmint load. The rifle is a CZ 527 Varmint with the long barrel.
Make good decisions!!!

Yeah! I hate having to work around the magazine,but it seems like these CZ's like a long jump.
