Cz-527

[LRRPF52]

I mean, are they really going to machine and produce a different bolt and magazine for the 6.8? What chamber drawing will they use....the SAAMI with the incorrect throat angle that is insanely dangerous, or a non-SAAMI safe one? What bullets will shooters be able to use? Ain't loading longer .277 pills into that action unless you single-feed. I looked at the 527's mag...it is short for a reason. None of these are problems with the Grendel.

A lot of major industry figures don't even know that the Grendel is SAAMI spec'd, and still are under the impression that Bill A. is "holding control of the cartridge to himself". I tell you, whoever sewed the seeds of disinformation against the Grendel did an outstanding job of brainwashing the industry into believing their BS hook, line, and sinker.

It will still come around since there is too wide a base of support and demand for the cartridge. LAR had their 22" gun on display, and it is quite nice, with one of their new handguards, a blasted finish stainless barrel, PRS, and so forth. LAR is doing some pretty cool stuff with side chargers too...like a left-side charger, with normal ejection.

CZ will continue to have people ordering 527's with zero intent of ever touching copper to the 7.62x39 bores, and should ask them right up front for a barrel trade-in value, or for them to just sell actions. Maybe I need to give the guys at Surgeon rifles a plug for a micro action.

I also saw Zastava rifles that looked like they have micro actions.
