With options covering both traditional and modern aesthetics, the new CZ 600 series of bolt-action rifles have something for just about any hunter or precision shooter.
Boasting suppressor-ready, cold-hammer-forged barrels with some models yielding 0.7-MOA accuracy using factory match-grade ammunition, CZ bills these new models as veritable tack drivers. They also come standard with features like a four-position adjustable trigger, a 60-degree bolt throw, and the ability for the user to swap calibers through easy-to-use conversion kits. All models use an oversized bolt knob for improved control while the magazines are designed to be topped off via the ejection port.
The 600 series rifles headed to the American consumer market include four models: Alpha, Lux, Range, and Trail.
The CZ 600 Alpha has a lightweight aluminum receiver and black soft-touch synthetic stock. It comes chambered in nine calibers from .223 Rem to .300 Win Mag, notably including 7.62x39 and 6.5 Creedmoor. It has integrated Picatinny-scope bases and barrel lengths that range from 18 to 24 inches depending on caliber. (Photo: CZ-USA)
The CZ 600 Lux is full-on old-school European hunting rifle including wood furniture with a Schnabel tip. Using a steel receiver outfitted with Remington 700 scope bases, the Lux is chambered for four traditional hunting cartridges: .223, .308 Win, .30-06m, and .300 Win Mag. (Photo: CZ-USA)
The CZ 600 Trail is a super lightweight rifle that falls into the lower 6-pound range. It gets that light due to an aluminum receiver and polymer chassis with an aluminum forend that has an M-LOK interface. The Trail is chambered in .223 Rem or 7.62x39, using either AR-15 or Bren 2 magazines, respectively. It also has AR-15 surface controls (safety and mag release) while the pistol grip features interchangeable backstraps compatible with the CZ P-09 pistol. With the stock collapsed, it runs just 27 inches in overall length while retaining a 16.2-inch barrel. (Photo: CZ-USA)
The CZ 600 Range includes a steel receiver, heavy barrel, and laminate target stock with a toolless height-adjustable cheekpiece. Offered in six calibers, it uses detachable mags. (Photo: CZ-USA)
The MSRP on the CZ 600 rifles ranges from $749 for the more basic Alpha models to $1,199 for the Range while the Lux ($849) and Trail ($1,155) fall somewhere in the middle of those bookends.
A fifth model, the CZ 600 Ergo, is currently just listed on the company's European websites.
Chambered in six calibers ranging from .223 Rem. to the .300 Win, including 8x57 IS, the CZ 600 Ergo uses a specially designed, fiber-reinforced thumbhole-style polymer stock. (Photo: CZUB)
