CZ 527 Carbine .311 bore, bullet suggestions? - The Firearms Forum

Jboy · 03-11-2012, 10:19 AM

Just got a CZ 527 Carbine in 7.62x39. CZ makes them with a .311 bore and rather than load up .308 bullets and wanting to use .311 jacketed bullets ask if any suggestions are available. Will also most likely try .312 0r .313 cast.

Thanks in advance.

Yes Speer makes A 123 gr SP Its .310 OD I have a .311 bore in the SKS and they work just fine. Horndy make the same as well, same OD. I not to shure on any of the other makers of bullets.
If you go cast Lee make a mold for them as well.

I get good results in my 527M with the Hornady .310 123 grain SP bullets. Also, I get excellent results from the new Berry's plated 125 grain bullet.
