I've got an older .223 527 American with the 12 twist barrel. I converted it to a wood stocked M1 configuration by getting the parts from the CZUSA Webstore. They sell the M1 trigger guard/mag release etc. I also got the upgraded thinner bolt handle so the scope can be mounted lower. I used Warne rings in medium for the CZ 16mm dovetail. The M1 wood stock that I was sent is very nice and has quite a bit of figure in it. I hit the "wood lottery" on that one. It shoots the Sierra 55gr Gamekings and the Hornady 53gr v-max very well over a charge of Varget.
