CZ 527's have an odd trigger placement to the rear of the receiver compounded by such a short action. So it's not easy finding scopes that 'fit' well, ie; centered elevation/windage turrets between the rings. Compounded also by rings that are a little too high for the cheek height of the stock.
Best combo i've found is warne maxima medium rings as the lowest of them. And two scope options.
1. Leupold fxII 4x33 with it's super short eye piece and no magnification ring length plus the long eye relief you get a perfectly centered scope in the rings. Nice fit, discontinued scope, you'll want more magnification at 300.
2. Leupold 3-9x33 ultralight efr, it has short eye relief, is a short light weight scope, should center just the same as the fxII 4x33 with the trade off in eye relief for the addition of the magnification ring. The recoil isn't an issue to need super long eye relief. And with 9x you can see better at 300 to do your work. The downside to this option is i believe it comes with a fine duplex reticle. This isn't an issue for me because this scope would be going into leupold authorized warranty center for a cds-zl elevation turret install and i'd have the reticle switched to wide duplex to make the ideal cz 527 scope match in all respects. It would be an investment to do all this but that is the perfect scope for the cz 527 imo.
Good luck in your choice.
