We announced our Cz chassis at Shot Show for a Q1 release.... Well it's a bit late thanks to some unfortunate work by not so great cerakoters.

Looks nice! What made you decide to go with a shorter forend rather than one that extends the arca rail further forward?

This balances the rifle nicely. It's kinda at a sweet stop, not too short but also not overly long which would add a lot of cost and weight.

Gotcha, where does the balance point wind up being on the rifle? Thinking of NRL22 style positional shooting where folks are usually looking for a center of gravity in front of the mag well?

With a heavy 16" barrel the balance is just in front of the mag well. Obviously your stock and grip choice will shift that, so weights might be desired.

As pictured with the pencil barrel, it's balanced at the mag well, which is where I personally prefer it.
