Picked up my CZ 527 that started as a 7.62X39 carbine and now wears a straight fluted 22 inch Obermeyer 1:8.4 barrel, chambered with SAAMI spec reamer. Action blue printed and squared with the barrel. Factory stock was used but is now glass and pillar bedded with the barrel channel opened up to get rid of the cutouts for the rear sight, the barrel is profiled to fit the new channel contour and free floated the entire length. Scope mount is a DIP products 20moa rail, with it standard low rings will work so will pick those up tomorrow and finish mounting the scope. Hopefully will get to shoot it Tuesday

Work was done by Scott Weichel in Wylie Texas 972-404-6703

I like the stainless and wood look. What's the weight?

7.4 lbs with scope, mounts and mag. Was going for a light weight hunting rifle that can serve for targets with low recoil.

Looks like it met your goal rather well. I'll be watching for the range report.

That looks like the one rifle every man , woman and child in the state of Texas should own. what trigger did you use.

Trigger is factory, they come with a single set trigger, this one breaks at 3lbs when not set and 10 ounces when set

That is a very good looking rifle, I have a Rem 700 BDL in .243 that would be a great subject to do this to. That is if you don't mind me using your ideas.

Since it's a 243, make it a 6.5 x 47 Lapua.

Tad more oomph than the Grendel. Another great 6.5 mm chambering with low recoil.

Might have to do just that. You have a good place to do a ladder test at distance when I have some fireformed brass to work with.

Don't mind at all. The 6.5X47 Lapua Fireman suggested would be a very good canidate since it would be a little less costly than the Grendel in a 700. The Lapua uses the same bolt face as the 243 while the Grendel uses a little smaller bolt face. Then Again Pacific Tool and Guage sells Remington 700 bolts with the correct bolt face and a host of other cartridges with the 220 Russian as the parent case. Trajectory of the Grendel is almost the same as a 308 with 168gr match bullets with recoil less than a 30-30

Oh Scott is setup now with the tools and jigs he made for this build and CZ is now selling just the action if you want one. They will also sell the stock or a varmint stock that is more pistol grip style if that is your preference

It amazed me how well it balanced and pointed. I can only imagine how well it will shoot.

That is really nice. I think I remember you talking about doing
this a few years ago? Let us see some chrono and grouping results
once you get it dialed in!!
