CZ600 7.62 vs European military primers

[y2k]

Wondering how the cz 600 (any model) in 7.62x39 works with hard military surplus ammo from Europe. I ask because experience with cz 600 in .223 not working well with .223 American eagle ammo. Light primer strikes. Cz trail and lux

I'd email cz usa and see what they say. I have a 7.62x39 600 but only fire hand loads out of it. Never had an issue w anything. My cz527 in 7.62x39 and 527 in 556 eat whatever you feed em. Cz even advertised them to shoot surplus ammo. I'd be surprised if that changed but with new models I guess things could have been geared towards regular factory ammo. Hope you get it sorted

Fired a few Norinco and Barnul ammo in a CZ600 without issue so far

Mine has shot Norincro Red Box "non-corosive" and Chinese spam can corrosive surplus without issue.

If you have patience to find and are willing to spend a bit extra. Get a cz527. Mine and many others favorite. It's a shame cz stopped making them. The 600 series is good but 527 is legendary. Imho of course
