"Obviously the CZ527 is not exactly a heavy kicker." Yea not a heavy kicker, yet you may be surprised at the recoil realized in the Grendel with 129 grain SP over a max charge Leverevolution loads. Know I was surprised after getting comfortable shooting the 17 HH free recoil:)
Recently realized we may have a very simple solution here with the Boyds adjustable At one stock. This stock goes down to 12". I am hopeful this will be short enough to get us where we we need to be.
Sounds like a good practical solution.
As to recoil, too many kids are set up to fail with guns considered to be modest recoilers. They need very light guns and the addition of their often ill-fitting stocks and poor form can lead them to getting beat up. Lots of kids have sense enough to not come back for more...
