I'M IN THE MARKET FOR A .223, I NEED SOMETHING LIGHT AS MY ARTHRITIS IS GETTING WORSE. COST IS ALSO A FACTOR, I'M TRYING TO KEEP THE COST OF THE RIFLE BELOW $600.
I'M LOOKING AT THE.....
WEATHERBY VANGUARD ALL BELOW $600
REMINGTON 700 SPS ALL BETWEEN 6-7 POUNDS
CZ 527 AMERICAN
ANY SUGGESTIONS? ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH CZ?
( MAYBE I MISSED A BETTER CHOICE? )
ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
I have two CZ's-a 527 carbine 7.62X39mm, and a 550 in .416 Rigby. Both are very high quality, accurate shooters. I do object to the detachable magazine in the 527, though. On a mini-Mauser type action, I'd much prefer the nondetachable double-row internal box mag. of the standard Mauser type.....
BUT the CZ 527 is very light and handy!
