Any first hand CZ 600 experience?

[Shako Badhan]

I recently got a chance to put my hands on the new CZ 600 Lux. I was actually impressed with how it felt in the hand an cycled. I’m not sure about the looks yet. It apparently has a semi CRF action which is interesting.

I know it had a recall because of the quick change barrel system not working out but that aside it seems interesting. Anyway have one yet and can give me some first hand feedback?

I wish they still offered big bore cartridges with the CZ600.

Must be that newfangled model, have never seen one.

I handled a couple 600's in a gun store in early 2022 (pre-recall). They were in the "Bavarian" style like the one pictured, a .223, .308, and .300WM, if I remember correctly.

Honestly, they seemed like solid rifles and were pretty handsome and well fit for the relatively low price tag. Action seemed a bit smoother than the 550s I've handled, which are mostly bigger bores (.375 H&H and .416 Rigby).

I remember reading about the recall but haven't followed it since. If that's all patched up, I'd have no problem owning one in .223 or .308 or something along those lines.

From what I have read on the recall there was the possibility that the end user (or the factory) could possibly install then barrel improperly allowing the rifle to rifle out of battery.

They do seem like nice rifles and for the price I don’t mind not having a quick change barrel. Maybe given time they will prove themselves in African like their forebears.
