Home Forums Reloading Varmint Rifles CZ mini Action rifles chambering's

Been rather disappointed over the years in chambering CZ has elected not to chamber. On the other hand I should be thankful for the variety they had seen fit to chamber. In my way of thinking, Two of the stand outs they did chamber were the 221 Fireball & the 6.5 Grendel. A few I feel they should have chambered were the 17 Fireball, 6mm ARC. Suppose I can understand no rifles were factory chambered in 20 tactical or 20 Vartarg.

More troubling today is the CZ 600 is offered in very few chambering's & worse yet is the fact that the lugs for the bolt to lock into are in the barrel as opposed to the action. Seems like it will be a while before anyone masters making a aftermarket barrel for the CZ 600.

Howa Mini covers a few of the bases left open by CZ. Good little rifles in my experience.

Howa has done the 6mm Arc & I applaud them on that. The 17 Fireball is another that I had hoped would be embraced by the mini action folks at CZ or Howa. Then I really hope for too much when wanting to see a Wild can like 20 Vartarg.

I can attest 17 fireball in a cz is an absolute riot. They should have offered. The cz 600 in my view is a flop. I think the warning should have been rifle detects dumb assery and brings about natural selection if you mis tighten the barrel screws

Agreed CZ527 & 17 Fireball are made for one another & very effective. I will be giving the 20 Vartarg a go soon in the CZ 527 as well & have high expectations. Have to thank the folks that tried this before me & sharing interesting experience.
