The hog back isn't to my liking for scope use,exacerbated by the bolt throw requiring a high'ish scope.Meaning a low,straight 1-4x20 still needs higher rings so bolt will clear.I "think" CZ has addressed this?But ours is an early example.
The mini action is very cute,but stiff as a.....And yes,I worked it in,operating it briskly for HUNDREDS of reps.It helps but the geometry is a little wonky.
The finish?As a professional finisher on a 1-10,it's prolly a 6.And that's not really a criticism.The technical reasons are explainable but gets very "industry".Grit change regimens,resulting in evident scratches sorta under the finish.Which can also be explained.It's a price point finish.I know what to do to it.....no biggy.Decent figure.
The gun is stupid accurate with JB's.From old white box Winchester's from chinamart to fitted handloads.1/2" 5 shot groups at 100 with boring regularity.But if you're running them up the mag,better be prepared to utilize a crimp(which I do on all rifle loads to varying degrees anyway) cause that cartridge angle and folks not jackin the bolt positively enough......will play heck with that perfect zero R.O. load you worked up.
So,no scope,crimped(enough) handloads,practice with the bolt a Lot,and it carries...handles very well.Set trigger is well made and even when it's NOT set,is middle of the pack in crispness and let off.And I use it unset probably more than set.
