Sounds good mate, at 50m I can imagine it making a decent hole. The Hilar zone is exactly the shot placement where my son has been practicing on goats but like I say we haven't shot a deer yet with that load. He shot a decent sized Billy at around 200m and dropped him on the spot.Quote:

It's actually been chopped down to hold 3 rounds. And yes even with that it still looks clumsy.Quote:

CZ527 and Ruger Ranch suffer the same issue. Zastava is starting to get heavy. Not sure if there is anything else.
Didn't get as many bites as I thought it would... wedged some puzzle pieces under the barrel to make it slightly lighter than @Gibo :DQuote:

Works really well. Has a nice leupold with a pig plex reticle.
3.2kg scoped and suppressed is really light. Did you chop the barrel down?Quote:

Haha thought something was up :DQuote:

Meet Kimberly............Kimber Adirondack 300BLK, VX5 1-5 x 24 fire dot and DPT suppressor
Very nice Bushwalker!! Hunt the Kaimais much? That would be about as good as it gets for in there aye
Nice, what do you think of it?, what projectiles are you using?Quote:

What stock is that on your CZ?Quote:

@Gusto it's a South Fort Labs, it's the Duley's Bush Pig model. South Fort make them. Don't think you'll see them on their website. South Fort stocks are only inletted for the Remington and Tikka / Sako actions but they custom inletted this one for me, and they'll probably have a machining file now for any other CZ 527 users out there. I also got a Pachmayr recoil pad rather than their standard Limbsaver, and the fore end has been cut back for the 12.5" barrel and suppressor
Cheers, no haven't hunted Kaimais yet as i hear it gets a bit busy!! Usually Rotorua, Kaimanawas and Ureweras.
Really like it!! Light, accurate and red dot is great. Originally looked at a Ruger but the missus said that was too ugly and made me buy the Kimber (who was i to argue). I'm using 125SST at moment. I have 125TMK to load next apparently they're better. Currently looking into SubsQuote:

Attachment 135612 Possibly not in the league of many of the awesome weapons but this is my close quarters choice. 17.7 inch barrel 6.5x55 swede 1942 Husky
Sub-x is pretty great stuff $50 a boxQuote:

Here is my current goat rifle. cz527 carbine. Barrel is 16inchs. Now sports a 2-7 redfield. Also attached are pictures of 3 shot flush mag conversion. Magazine is factory cz and fits bottom metal that comes out on some newer rifles from them from memory. Saw the mag online and thought it looked the same apart from length. So i bought one and filed the triangle flange off of bottom metal and works mint. Then I lost the mag f#%K.Attachment 135641Attachment 135642Attachment 135643
Looks beautiful with the flush magazine!Quote:
