MAIN CZ 600 American

CZ-USA has introduced the 600 American rifle, a modern, American-style bolt-action centerfire rifle that’s equipped with a crafted Turkish walnut stock with a fleur-de-lis on the grip. Available in a wide range of calibers, from .223 Remington to .300 Winchester Magnum, it is ready to meet the needs of a wide range of hunters and sport shooters.

The CZ-USA 600 American centerfire rifle is equipped with a thin profile and cold, hammer-forged barrel. The single-stage trigger features smooth operation and simple user-adjustment of pull weight. A locking five-round magazine allows for quick changeovers from fixed to removable operation and vice versa. Like most centerfire rifles in the CZ-USA 600 series, the CZ-USA 600 American features a patented vertical safety with intuitive and virtually noiseless operation. The bolt can be removed by pressing a spring-loaded button on the right side of the receiver without having to disengage the safety and manipulate the trigger. The controlled feed system with short extractor ensures reliable delivery of cartridges in any position, even during rapid reloads.
