Any reason for those sky high mounts?527 carbine in 762x39 was my first c/f
Sold when I upped to my 308.
Regretted it, made a case to vary my FAC
Bought new then sold on to Hornet 6 as my shooting ground was lost.
Always felt something was missing in the cabinet
Now I have new ground a use for the calibre and granted a variation
Bought this second hand a couple of weeks ago
"My name is Archer and I am a 527 carbine tart"
Tart, maybe, but I've been following the 527 troop train, stop by stop. I just counted: This makes 527 purchase number 10. In fairness, I gave my 204 to my girlfriend and an American Hornet and my X39 carbine to my son. The carbine was one of the most handsome CZ's I've ever seen. The pic I posted is a file pic from CZ. My rifle has a very dark piece of walnut with a satin finish, reminiscent of my son's carbine but without the swirling grain pattern. What are you shooting, ammo wise? I currently run Hodgdon CFE Black and Accurate Arms 1680. Both of these powders are very similar to LOVEX D063.02. It is interesting that the last 1440 rounds of BELOM ammuntion I received had a stickers on the individual boxes showing the charge of D063-02 they had loaded. Handy info as the ammo -this is FMJ and slated for police and military- is very accurate. ~Muir527 carbine in 762x39 was my first c/f

Prvi is the most common boxer primed ammo here in my area... or was. I bought a large quantity of it but only got really good accuracy from the 123 grain RN. Handloads are another matter with that carbine and my suppressor-ready model. Both of these shot under MOA when I didn't screw it up. I am heading to the range in a few hours to do some off hand practice. I'll test the new American model then with Hornady Steel Match (SST loaded in steel cases) some PPU, BELOM, and a few handloads. I'm hoping for good results. ~MuirRifle came with a box of Prvi Partizan - 7.62mm x 39 FMJ 123gr and the group shot- from a bench rest, at 25m- was tight.
I plan a session this coming Thursday so will have more details after that
Did used to hand load but I doubt I will restart as the "over the counter" cost for Prvi ammunition is ok for me
He's the fool if that's the breaking point of the sale. Set triggers do not enhance accuracy. I have never found so in my CZ's and accordingly, have been replacing the triggers with Timneys. There are some Videos on line of accuracy tests with and without the set. "Without" won every time. My new 527 has a decent quality single stage pull but I really wish CZ would just offer a good single stage trigger and dump the set. ~MuirDamn! An unnecessary reminder that aswinepal still refuses to sell me his. He wasn’t that keen on it until I foolishly showed him the set trigger…..
123 grain RN looks very interesting so will see if I can locate any- though I think it might be a long searchPrvi is the most common boxer primed ammo here in my area... or was.

I have the same issue . I have dies , brass and bullets , but factory ammo is so cheap I can't be bothered . That and the fact my rifles really like Privi and Wolf doesn't help to motivate me . I also have several thousand rounds of Czech ( great stuff ! ) Ball ammo for casual plinking and general deviant uses . The dies may be gathering dust for some time .Rifle came with a box of Prvi Partizan - 7.62mm x 39 FMJ 123gr and the group shot- from a bench rest, at 25m- was tight.
