I have several deer to the 123 gr SSTs, my CZ is extremely accurate.
I would like to try the barnes TSX 123 gr, but at the price of around $85.00 for 50 over here thats not going to happen. You guys can get them for just over $30.00 at Midsouth

My little CZ carbine shoots S&B ammunition accurately. However, my hand loaded Hornady SSTs loads through this little guy almost always produces groups under 1". CP.

My rifle is a lot differt than yours due to it is no longer 7.62x39 as it has been re-barreled to a 24 in length .264 bore Lothar Walther chambered essentially to 6.5 Grendel. This barrel does very well with 123 grain SST over Benchmark.

All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

If you find the scope sits to high mate get a set of James Calhoon hunker mounts, they are fantastic and all my CZs wear them, lowest you can get I believe.
Have fun

The factory rings that come with the Tikka T3 will fit the CZ 527. I have a Weaver 1-3x variable mounted on mine in Tikka T3 rings.

Mackay, I wish I would have know that. I have 2 sets of tikka rings laying around. oh well. I took her out really quick today and shot a box of 20 rounds. here is my last 8 shots, two groups of 4 rounds. 100 yards from bench. made slight adjustment the last 4 shots and almost all went into bulls eye. not bad for surplus ammo.

Looks like you have a winner!!
I traded rifles with Mackay... When I owned it the gun would run MOA with most any "good" quality load... Never reloaded for it because I have a ton of FMJ practice loads and enough soft points to last many seasons...
