[QUOTE="Reemty J, post: 1894883, member: 113694"] Bit the bullet and purchased the CZ 527 Varmint in .204, put an inexpensive ($300) Vortex Tatical scope 4-12-40mm as it was a better balance than putting a heavy night force on it. Really like the trigger on it and the set trigger option is really fine. As people on here stated, the CZ is a shooter, factory 32 grain Hornady V-max's shot 3/8" 3 shot groups at 100 yards. First two loads with Reloader 10X and Accurate 2520 were 1/2" groups (39 SBK), when I do my part. Seems that each time I would get 2 touching and the 3rd a little bit away....has to be tweeking charge a little or bullet seating depth, my guess. I did a drop check on the 39 grain SBK, load was 29 grains Accurate 2520....1/2" high at 100, right on at 200, 4" low at 300 and 14" low at 400 yards..............man what a fun gun to shoot, cannot wait to put a few 39 grainers in some coyotes.........they sure left some craters in the metal plates I was shooting, all the way to 400 yards even......have access to a 1000 yard range, metal plates from 200 yards out every 100 yards.
