527 CZ in .204

[Catfish]

I`ve heard so much good and no bad about the CZ`s that I had to get one. I picked up one on the 13 th of this month, the day befor yeasterday. The wood is nothing fancy at all, but the fit and finish is first class. It has a set trigger, but not impressed by it or the trigger pull even after I spent so time getting it adjusted. It has the pincle barrle and was bought for a carry gun. It fired a .980 3 shot group with Hornady facory ammo and the smallest 5 shot group I got from it the first nite out with WC 844 and WC 846 powders were around 1 moa. Did notice that it was much easier to clean than any new rifle I ever owned, and better than alot of them that I fire lapped.
Took it out again tonite with AA 2230-c powder and 32 gn. bullets from Hornady and Serria. Not alot of difference in group size from slow to fast with the Hornady`s, mostly just below 1 moa. With the Serria`s The groups seemed to get better as I pushed they faster. The last group, which was .5 gn. over manufactures recomandation but showing no signs of presure, was .645 with the first 4 shots at .190. I dropped the last shot out of the group.
I haven`t tried 40 gn. bullet with the 2230-c powder yet, but that will be next. I also might add that the cases I was useing were formed from .222 Rem. mag. cases and had necks turned for .002 expantion. I have got some .204 cases now but have not loaded any of them yet.
I guess all of the good things I`ve heard abt. the CZ`s is true. I`ll report back with how it shots heaver bulles.
