The CZ 527 Lux, CZ 527 FS and CZ 527 Carbine are traditional European style models featuring open sights and a Turkish walnut stock in the Bavarian pattern while CZ 527 American, CZ 527 Varmint and CZ 527 Prestige are models made specifically for the US market with the American customer in mind featuring American pattern stock with 18 LPI checkering.[3]

The CZ 527 Varmint is an American-style bolt-action smallbore rifle designed by Česká zbrojovka Uherský Brod based on the CZ 527. It has a Mauser-style action, and is available in three different stylings: Standard, Laminated and Aramid composite.[3]

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 Template: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 had a 1:12 twist rate and post-2014 rifles have the 1:9 twist rate.[3]
