Thanks mate,
Havent used it much as I have been hunting more open country since I built it so the Creedmoor and 6.5x47 Lapua has been favored. Its dropped a few goats and a couple of hares though. ...

Had me scratching my head too but I just figured maybe it was a cheap dig at Mr king of arrogance Hardy..
While the guy is a total plonker his compact suppressors are as good as they get for...
Fairly decent energy retention at 500m too. About the same as a .243win with a 100gr projectile we worked out.

Its not too bad noise wise when suppressed. The BM8208 is quite a fast burning powder and only needs the 14.5" of tube to get max velocity with the 123gr and a full burn.. no big muzzle flash like a...
Finally got to stretch the little Grendels legs and test accuracy on a rock at 500m a couple of weeks ago with Flyblown.
Even with a tricky little wind we managed to land 3 rounds each on the same...
My pet load gives 2450fps with the 123gr Lapua scenars.
I haven't had the opportunity to stretch its legs much past 200 meters. I tend to grab the 6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5x47 Lapua for the longer shots.
No more sturdy than a Howa mini in grendel.
How would you rate my CZs precision with 1/4 moa 5 shot groups at 100yds?

Thanks.
The grip is a FAB arms AK47 grip, it just bolts on like an AR15 grip with a 6mm cap screw from inside the grip
I love the micro mauser cz actions. A Rem 700 would need a custom bolt face for a grendel and a sako or ar15 extractor fitted. There's no mag that would feed the grendel case in the Rem 700 unless...
That question was answered on page 1 post 5... cheers
All the Marksman range are SFP.
You are right.. personally I am not a fan of Hornadys offerings other than the V-max for varmints.
They get overly carried away trying to get high BC figures with aggressive secant and hybrid ogives...
Im not to sure as I didnt chamber this one, pretty sure it was a custom odered reamer with a shorter throat to suit the CZ 527s mag length and 123gr A-Max's. Loaded to max mag length of 2.320" (COAL)...
I have yet to shoot them past 250 yds so maybe next time we get out Ill bring it along :thumbsup:

I finally got a bit of time to myself to test some loads Ive had made up for the Grendel for a while now.
The 123gr Lapua Scenar open tip match...
I buy mine directly from Tac Vector optics in China. They are an American company and design using quality components and glass but assembled in China like 99% of other american brands these days. If...
No not at all, the property this rifle is used on most is open and rolling with animals on bush lines, the closest shots are about 160y all the way out to about 420y.
The fixed 10x suits the "do...
Fixed 10x Tac Vector Optics marksman.
Mil mil.. stunning clear German Schott glass and very usable reticle.
Thank you, took about 5 hours on the mill and another hour or so to prep and duracoat.
Thanks mate, its been an enjoyable hunter for sure. That 14.5 " tube still impresses me with the achievable velocities and knock down power. It weighs no more now than it did in your carbon stock....
Thanks for the comments guys.. Its one of my more favoured rifles for sure.
I have plans on another one even more "portable" and lighter still so you may see that one shortly too.
Found another...
Yes a dowel in the front of the bedding block and into the bush. There are also 6x 5mm grub screws securing it to the barrel. Its rock solid.. no flex
Thanks for the comments.
I dont understand why no one makes a chassis for the CZ527.. they make some great varmint rifles with a true micro action.
Could be a market there for you DPT Darren? ...
The throat was set up for the short mag and 123gr Amax but Im getting 1/2 MOA groups with 28.2gr of BM8208 with a 123gr Lapua Scenar at 2430fps and they are still supersonic at 1000yds.
Going to...
