I have a 527 in .223- it’s a rifle I’ve been considering to let go, but I know as soon as I do I will regret it. I also have a 550 in .375 H&H, that one will never go- a gun chambered in a dangerous game cartridge with Varmint rifle accuracy is just astounding and I love playing with it. I don’t have a new CZ centerfire and I don’t have much interest in one, either.
Their Rimfire rifles are equally amazing, even the new ones. My 452 American shoots great and is about as good as it gets for a squirrel rifle (for me), the factory trigger isn’t great but a spring kit fixes that easily enough. The 457 MTR I have is a tack driver, and has won enough .22 shoots to prove it (and with ammo that’s pretty cheap, too). By all means if you don’t have a CZ rimfire, you owe it to yourself to fix that ASAP.
