I wish the trail was more accurate.

It's quite accurate, but not with bulk.

My 7.62 will do sub-MOA with Federal Power-Shok or handloads, and the 5.56 will do similar if you feed it heavier rounds. The barrel twist just doesn't stabilize 55 grain well.

Problem is, 55 grain is the most common. It thrives on 62/68/70+ grain hunting or OTM ammo.

Interesting. Just though it was weird CZ wouldn’t guarantee it sub moa like the cz600.

The fact that it's a shorter barrel and has a telescoping stock largely mean that there's a level of shooter adjustment involved as well. Proper technique is mandatory to eliminate stock wiggle (pulling the pistol grip towards your shoulder and up results in a solid shoulder lock).

If they didn't understate the accuracy, tons of guys used to AR buffer or solid conventional stocks/feeding them ammo that doesn't vibe with the barrel twist would be RMA'ing them constantly. I've found that the 7.62x39 will do the claimed 2MOA with Chinese Surplus, which is pretty good. 123gr. SSTs, Hot-Cors (and by extension, Federal Power-Shok) and 150gn. Hot-Cors will generate very tight groups in the x39 when loaded appropriately.

I've heard that the 600+ models are largely an iteration based on customer feedback have tighter tolerances in the stock and such, which would help.

If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask. I've got probably 5k rounds through my trail at this point.

I have a 600 Alpha in x39 and it is shockingly accurate with bulk red box Norinco, somehow. It shoots great with basically any ammo, but the difference between red box and brass seems negligible. It actually blows me away how well it shoots that cheap crap. It'll shoot just over 1moa with steel cased pretty consistently, somehow.

I had some 2023 production that turned out to be corrosive though, so Im picky on what red box ill use in it since it shoots so well. None of the 2025 stuff I've run has been corrosive so far.
