cz527 carbine
« on: September 13, 2005, 07:57:47 AM »
am interested in a 527 carbine in 7.62x39.Since the bore on the cz is 311,what effect will shooting a 308 head have in the gun?

     Here's an e-mail I sent this spring to Mike, the gunsmith at CZ regarding various ammo types:

The 527 carbine in 7.62 x 39mm (M43) will have a .311" bore and will handle all 7.62 ammo.

You'll also find some more information on ammo and performance in the thread on Page 3 of the site, "question on the 7.62x39 carbine???".

I own one and my RCBS 7.62 x 39 dies allow for a .308 cal
bullet to be used. Guess it is for those guys that have a
surplus of .30 cal bullets and don't wish to buy .311 slugs.

I don't know if accuracy would suffer with the .308s.
