Can't say enough good about them.
Everyone I have shoots amazingly well.
I have two safes full of custom built rigs and this little pencil barreled thin stocked 527 American in .223 will shoot with any of them.

Off the hood with just a front sand bag at 120 yards.
35 grain non lead Nosler Ballistic tip.
28 grains W760.

I got the same rifle. I like it just fine.

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Have 5... They are the most consistently accurate out of the box rifles (of the same brand) that I’ve ever bought...

I have a CZ 455 American series rifle in 17 HMR. It is standard barrel and I have a 3x9x40 Nikon Buckmaster. It shoots great and I really like it.
The only thing I would like to change is the safety. To me it is backwards, forward is safe and back is fire. Which is opposite of all my other guns.

I won one of those from the Colorado trapper's association, thank you Marv Miller for selling me that ticket. It's the ruger .204 caliber, crazy accurate rifle.

Mine is a 550 model in a .270 Winchester I've shot deer and just one buffalo with it so far it's a tack driver with 140 gr bullets.
It has the set trigger also at first that really messed with my mind now I really enjoy it.

I know a lot of folks who hunt squirrels with the 452 in .22 and .17 hm2. The American and the varminter are extremely accurate rifles out of the box.

YES, some of my favorite rifles. I have a Model 1 22 lr, 452 mannlicher in 22 mag, and a 527 American in .223.
Boco, the 527 has a set trigger.

I like them as well however I more prefer my Tikka’s. No huge distinction between the two just like the feel and shot of the Tikka better.

I'm looking at a .17 as next rifle and am trying to decide between CZ 455 FS with the full mannlicher stock or the Ruger Precision. It's Style VS Cool.

The CZs must be good because they're so hard to find. I haven't even seen one, except in photos.
