moonfleet Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 Hello, does anyone have any info on weather the .17 hornet c/z is going to be discontinued I have read that at least two of the c/z range .22 hornet and .204 ruger are to be discontinued.

njc110381 Posted October 1, 2021 Report Share Posted October 1, 2021 Not heard anything. I know they dropped the 550 magnum from their lineup because of old tooling wearing out. Those actions aren't exactly big sellers though, so I'd be surprised if they did it for the same reason with the 527. It'll be a shame if they drop the .22 Hornet. Those rifles are one of the best shooters when it comes to that little cartridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 FWIW: I have learned that some of my Brit friends equate "Not cataloged" to "No longer made." For some reason CZ doesn't ship their full line to the UK. No where near the offerings posted on CZ-USA's website. ~Andrew https://cz-usa.com/product-category/rifles/micro-centerfire-rifles/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 I don't remember if I've posted this, but as an aside to the CZs: I recently purchased the 22" barreled 527 American in 7.62x39. I was surprised to find that the recoil lug was glass bedded and there was a steel bedding block as I found in my 2020 Varmint 6.5 Grendel. Additionally, the action was pillar bedded from the factory. No more steel 'roll pin' under the tang. No more turning pillars in the lathe.... Out of the box accuracy is top-notch. ~Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philong Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 17 Hornet seems to be gaining popularity..makes sense as its a flat shooter and cheap to feed if reloading..about 11 gr of powder. My mate has a CZ he loves it..mines a Savages M25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
