dusk2dawn Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Can anyone help please, my CZ 527 has started jamming , it will not pick up from the mag cleanly. I recently removed the bolt to bore sight a new scope and now its playing up, I have replaced the bolt and it cycles cleanly without any ammo in the mag. I couldn,t find any previous topics on this problem, maybe someone could point me in the right direction apart from the obvious visit to the Gunsmith. All advice greatly appreciated.

Dunkield Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I have one of these and the pickup from the mag isn't reliable - so I <may> be able to help... Some questions though: How does it jam? Does the bolt skim across the top the round, and not pick it from the mag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi just sitting here with it and the first round in the mag is up in position ready for the bolt ,the bolt moves forward about a quarter inch and the bottom edge of the bolt is butted against the round by about the thickness of the collar around the cap, if pushed fairly hard the round will enter the throat, but its not at all satisfactory.

dusk2dawn Posted June 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Looking at the mag, its a Remmington, and the spring pressure to push the rounds up is not that great, does anyone know how to adjust the spring? Thanks. D2D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 The mag is a remington? I am confused now You can adjust the CZ mag spring by sliding the top plate off through the the front of the mag. It can then be stretched or adjusted if required. Out of interest my 527 does exatly what you describe, I thought I had got it wrong when I re stocked it, but I assembled the action into old stock the other day and it exactly the same. The answer is to get the magazine up into the action some more, I am still working out how to do that nicley... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoke to my dealer today and it looks as though they have mixed up the mags when it was in for some work. So tomorrow when I go in all should be resolved.... I hope. Thanks for your input.
