THE CZickness LI.....Shooting for a Summer to Remember

[MindfulMan]

I've admired those from afar, Tarzan.

Wondering what my next CZ should be, I only have the pcr.

I’m thinking I need a long gun that’s not an AR.

Perhaps a fancy .22LR to compete at the range with your brother ?

Spend for a 527 rifle? Maybe in 7.62x39?

Try out the new 600 series?

or maybe a Bren 2?

I do already have a JC Higgins Model 31 and a Winchester model 67.

I'm still working out the scope mount for the J.C. Higgins. A friend has a Shoptask lathe/dril/mill. I'm gonna try to mill 1mm off the base of the rings I bought and that should get me going.

How common is that caliber? I don't know alot about rifle calibers other than .223/5.56.

Plus my budget is limited until I can save a little more. I just blew my budget in Las Vegas at the pool tournament by buying a $400 carbon fiber shaft for my cue.

Meant to type 7.62x39.

I am an idiot.....

Oh yes, the AK round. Are 7.62 and 308 interchangeable similar to .223/5.56?

Nada. 7.62x39 is the AK round. Common as McDonalds. Great deer round. Better accuracy within it range than its given credit for. Nice shooting round.

7.62 x 51 is equivalent to 308.

The 7.62x51 is the 308

There's a CZ 600 in 7.62x39 at Wrigley in Fort Wayne. They also have a used Tavor X95 for $1249.

@indyblue .... Do you like big thumpers ? Something that has some oooommph behind it, just for fun ?

 

[ditcherman]

I was having a “conversation” with someone here on the board about truck camping and they mentioned they had a CZ in .223 with a set trigger. Very accurate, great hunting rifle IIRC.
Would a set trigger be something from the factory?
Are there certain models to look for in 22-250 or 223 or 308 calibers?

I am not sure. The only other rifle I have tried so far is my buddies Tikka in 6.5 Creedmoor.

Always welcome to try something in my safe!

 

[Born2vette]

Speaking of new guns, the old Ruger is gone. Can‘t make my mind up what I want next but this is high on my list. Any of you CZickos have any experience with these or the standard TX22?

Why don’t we work it like the last deal we talked about (that apparently fell through?) where you buy it and I’ll put the gas in it?

Have you seen the price of gas for that thing?

Turbo had a CZ527 in 7.62x39 with the set trigger. I should have bought it when he moved it along. Sigh....

Had a gorgeous tiger striped stock.

IMnsHO any 527 in any caliber is worth having. Each caliber you mention has a different sets of characteristics. I see no other option but to buy all three....if you can find them.
