Nice, what do you think of it?, what projectiles are you using?

Mate if you could post a picture of that and how you did it that would be awesome as I’m thinking of doing something similar

@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 Subs

Nothing wrong with the 125gr SST I’ve shot a few reds with them along with Nosler 125gr BT.

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 box
I also use 8.5gr of 2205 with a 155gr hollow point cast by one of the guys on here

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.

Looks beautiful with the flush magazine!

These are both non-compliant with @Gibo ‘s strict eligibility criteria (their barrel lengths are above 18”), but to hell with the rules, these are what I use in the bush! 308 top, 243 bottom

Nice mate, il let it slide being sakos n all
