Sort of weird that it acted that way in the bench. Thanks for watching Santee!

About 6 years ago I bought a CZ 527 [7.62 x 39] When I first got it the bolt was kind of gritty or rough feeling and the accuracy was terrible. I am an experienced shooter and usually shoot pretty tight groups. CZ sent me a postage paid shipping label for me to send it back to them. Less than 3 weeks later I got a package from CZ. I went to the range soon after and tried it out and it operated like butter and gave me 1 to 1-1/2" groups as long as I wanted to shoot. CZ more than fixed it, they put a different new rifle in my stock and also bedded the action. I now own about 8 CZ firearms and am happy with all of them. I also own 3 VZ 58s so I guess I am a CZECH GUN NUT.

I hope so too! There will be another video checking the 100 yard accuracy but not until some of this ice is gone. Thanks for watching!

I had a CZ 455 Varmint a while back that would put two shots into an inch at 100 but threw the third shot out by 2 to 3 inches every time. It didn't matter what ammo I tried, it would do that with anything I ran through it! I glass bedded it and tried a pressure bed at the fore arm tip and nothing made any difference. I sat and studied over that problem for hours and hours, trying to figure out what the problem was and after I sold it and began looking at picking up a 457 American, it dawned on me that I should have removed that barrel and looked for any burrs that might have been left over and missed by QC! Looking back on it, I might have fixed that problem, but you never know! I have looked at this 512 as a replacement, but I have accuracy expectations that I don't believe this rifle will meet. You have a great channel my friend and I had to sub! Wish that I had found you sooner though!

@@SmallCaliberArmsReview I'll spread the word my friend! As far as shooting small and tight groups go, I have my good days and then I have days when I just go rock hounding instead! But, on a good day, I do pretty well! I'm a fan of CZ rimfires and have upgraded to the 457 in everything rimfire that I shoot. Got very lucky in that to, because they have all turned out to be extremely accurate and very reliable with no issues at all. I'm struggling with the MTR though... It's very accurate with the match barrel that came on it, but Josh over at "Pursuit of Accuracy" installed a Lilja target barrel on his competition rifle and man does that thing shoot! So, now I've got the "Hots" for one! The cost is reasonable for a Lilja and I just might do it, but I don't shoot competition, so I am torn.. I'll let you know what I end up doing! Have a great day my friend!

Не знаю вашу ситуацию, но смотря на фрагмент видео где вы стреляете первый раз, очень четко видно, что при выстреле ружье дернулось назад слишком свободно, а потом микроскопическим движением вы еще подтянули ружье на себя. Для меня все очевидно вы не уперли приклад в подставку и ружье дернулось назад, замок пошел назад вместе с ружьем. Это и вызвало задержку. На втором видео после гарантийного ремонта приклад уперт хорошо. Может я ошибаюсь🙂

The test will be when you put the scope on and try to shoot for precision. I’ve had several guns that the trigger was not set up correctly. If you squeezed the trigger correctly. The gun would fire the action would cycle. But since you used proper trigger control the hammer missed the disconnect and follower the bolt. People who yank the trigger don’t have this issue
