The last styling of the Varmint model is known as the Kevlar model. The primary difference is the stock is made of a Kevlar composite manufactured by H-S Precision. The rifle has an aluminium bedding block to which the action is screwed while the barrel is free floated. The rifle does not have sights and is not supplied with scope rings. Supported calibers are the .204 Ruger and .223 Remington. This model weighs Шаблон:Cvt. It also has the fastest rifling twist ratio for the .223 Remington of the three models(1:9 instead of 1:12). Early production rifles (pre 2002) had a 1:12 twist rate and post-2002 rifles have the 1:9 twist rate.[2]
The CZ 527 Varmint in .223 has muzzle velocities for standard-load Шаблон:Convert ammunition of around Шаблон:Convert. The 1:9 barrel twist in the Varmint Kevlar reduces muzzle velocities by about 1.5%. Heavier bullets (Шаблон:Convert) shoot above Шаблон:Convert.[2]
