Title: 6.5 Grendel 527 coming?
Post by: jkingrph on April 19, 2017, 03:21:31 PM

I just saw on the 6.5 Grendel forum that the 527 in 6.5 Grendel has arrived.  The person posting gave a link to a catalog picture of the Rustic version, saying they had gotten the info from a CZ facebook entry.    I checked facebook, which I rarely look at, and discovered that yes they have arrived, in walnut only, not the rustic version, and no indication of when they will ship to dealers.  I had placed an order with deposit a little over a month ago with my dealer.  He checked with CZ at the time and was told that 300 were coming and that at the time 293 had been committed, so hopefully I will be receiving one soon.

Excellent! I'd like to see the 527M Carbine in this caliber, too.

Got an email from CZ yesterday, they will be shipping in 2-4 weeks.

Another notice said on May 2 that the factory was packing them for shipment.

Reply today requesting update on status.  Dereck at CZ said they were awaiting rings to ship with rifles received.  Sounds as though rifles are in US, but no rings which sounds strange.   Why would they ship without the rings from factory?

Sent another couple of questions and it was clarified.  Rifles are still in Europe, awaiting rings and shipment.
