My first CZ527 (15 years ago) I didn't realize it had a set trigger. I wasn't happy with the non-set trigger pull so I swapped it out for a Timney that I had set at 2lbs. The give away was when I went to pick up the rifle after a bedding job and swapping out trigger. My gunsmith, who seldom handles a CZ unless I brought it, commented that the factory trigger was extremely complicated... it was a set trigger. Its been sitting in a parts box ever since. I think you can go as light as 1.5lbs for a field rifle and not have an issue with it accidentally going off when it gets jard. Easy to test... set the trigger weight, cock the rifle (unloaded) and then bounces it off the floor a few times on its butt pad from a couple of feet up. If it doesn't drop the firing pin then you are safe.
Edit: When I ordered mine directly from Timney, they asked what weight I wanted it set at.
