    CZ527 American in 22 Hornet + Leupold VX3 3.5-10x40

    Bought it for a very, very good price. Beautiful walnut. Annoying protruding magazine but I was willing to accept that.
    Only downside is the bolt throw is so high that it keeps scraping the side of the scope when pulling the bolt back. Sitting in medium height factory Tikka T3 rings. Bolt handle is apparently the "newer" version, so already less pronounced than the older CZ527's. Leupold VX3's are as skinny of a scope as it gets.

    Remington 700, Winchester M70, Ruger M77, Howa 1500, etc, all have 90 degree bolt throw just like the CZ527, but for some reason, the CZ's just seem to have less clearance!

    Not sure how to fix it apart from changing to high rings, but then that ends up with a massive gap between the barrel and the objective bell.

    Overall a very nice deal. Shame it can't be used on Doc land. Can imagine it being a decent wallaby and fallow rig.
