Any thoughts on these rifles? I've been looking for another gun to shoot this same ammo, other than AK's and SKS's

What kind of accuracy are you getting in 7.62x39 from the ranch rifles.Ruger makes the American Ranch in this caliber w/16 inch threaded barrel. Doesn't have the beautiful wood furniture the CZ has, but as far as accuracy and price, hard to beat.

I have a very old like a ruger made in 1975 series 180 in 223 that is about the most inaccurate rifle that I own.
The CZ looks like a very good rifle and one can really tune up some good loads for it using boxer primed brass. Since i have good bolt guns in other calibers it does not really pay for me to get a bolt gun in that caliber just to shoot it in a bolt gun.
Hell no. Walnut and birch are two different woods.
Birch being MUCH softer. ---- SAWMAN
Regarding the Ruger American Ranch. You should be able to get MOA with good ammunition. I agree with Realtor on the look and feel of wood and steel. However, CZ is not using walnut on that gun. They are using walnut stained birch. Not that there's anything wrong with that. But if you're expecting walnut not going to happen. Ruger made in USA, CZ (?). Ruger 5 round magazines $25 are available, CZ 5 round magazines $50 not available. Ruger logo 20 round magazines $30, CZ n/a. The Ruger takes Mini 30 magazines. You probably can get aftermarket magazines cheaper than Ruger logo ones. Any magazine that work in Mini 30 will work in the Ruger. Scope mount on Ruger integral to receiver (very solid), CZ not. Must buy scope blocks and rings separate. Ruger trigger adjustable, CZ not. Price on the Ruger $500. Price on the CZ $700+. Ruger readily available, CZ not. I really don't have a dog in this fight. They are both accurate if that's your only consideration. I'm making a comparison for value. If you want to see actual accuracy on the Ruger watch this YouTube video. Notice the shooter is shooting off hand not off a bench.
