Default After market composite stock for CZ 527 American?

..does anyone make one? I called HS, B&C and CZ themselves and no one makes a composite stock for a 527 American.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ive been looking for one also. Ive found places that will fit one from another rifle for the CZ but it is very pricy to get it done.

First mod I had done is the bolt handle. Sent it off to James Calhoon http://www.jamescalhoon.com/ and he milled down the bolt so it will clear the ocular lens of a scope that is mounted on Med rings. (Rifle came with High rings for this reason).
Second mod is the magazine. Sent the trigger guard/magazine well, magazine release and one magazine to Roy Bertalotto http://www.rvbprecision.com/articles...ine-conversion and he milled down one magazine and the trigger guard to allow a shortened magazine to fit nearly flush. Most folks won't purchase a 527 because of the magazine protrusion. The price you pay to have a nearly flush mag is a 3 round mag vice 5 round HOWEVER, the standard 5 round mag (which is shown in the second pic) will still work.
Before:

After: (and a Double Coyotee call & 5 round mag)

I have a VX-III 4.5-14x40mm scope coming in a few weeks and then I'm sending the whole rifle off to get dipped in Mossy Oak Brush.
I shall call it........"THE SLAYER"

I believe H-S makes the synthetic for the factory varminter model. The varminterbarrel contour is slightly heavier than the american,so I know it would fit but you will have a free floated barrel with plenty of clearence.

Here are a couple of my 527's, the American is a 221 Fireball and the Kevlar is a 204 Ruger. I have not had the problems associated with the bolt hitting my scopes. It's certainlygoing to be dependant on the scope you are choosing to use. I used a set of medium Leupold ringsto mount the Nikon Monarch 5.5x16.5 and the supplied factory rings for the 6x18x50 Swarovski. On the magazine issue, I dont have a problem with the 5 round protruding.

The 527's are dandy walking varminters and Iam sure you'llenjoy yours

I havnt done anything to mine. I want to get rid of the wood stock and paint mine some kind of camo. I have a BSA 6-24 Target scope on mine that works great.

If I can't find a composite stock here pretty quick then I'm going to go ahead and dip the entire rifle in Mossy Oak Brush and forget about it.

You might check out Manners Composite Stocks, they might be able to inlet for a CZ...but they are kinda pricey.
