CZ, no not the fake jewels............

A CZ rifle, that is. In this case, a CZ 527 Lux chambered for the .223/5.56 cartridge. The neatest thing about this rifle is the trigger mechanism. It is completely adjustable with take up, sear engagement, overtravel and reset adjustment screws. It also is a single set trigger! Pull weight is about 3 lbs normally but when "set" the weight drops to about 1 pound! The stock is a European design with cheek piece and a schnabel forend. Weight is just a bit over 6 lbs. The scope I put on it is a 6-24 AO, 1/8" min. turret adjustments and an adjustment on the ocular lens for fine tuning. I bore sighted it using a laser bore sighter that loads in the chamber like a cartridge and did the final adjustments at the range this morning. I had to wait for a spot on the rifle range so I just had time to get the scope zeroed in. The fun shooting will come later. A picture;



I had to remove the rear sight leaf to make room for the scope bell but I will leave the scope on it most of the time anyway. A company by the name of Williams makes a rear peep sight that attaches to the rear scope base. Will probably get one of those to have "just in case".
