I found some cfe blk at my lgs today, my older books don't list it for 7.62x39. I have some speer 130 spfn and 150 rn I'd like to try in my cz 527. Any pet loads or data would be helpful.

I had just started using it when my 7.62x39mm rifle went away. The load I did have that was listed as "nice" was this one, 123gr Speer Gold Dot, Mixed brass, 28gr CFE BLK, COAL of 2.15.

Thanks, 28-29 seems common with 123s I'll see if I can find any published data to. But 25 maybe a good start with a 130 308.

ok thanks, the flat point 130 and round nose 150 I have look like they will be good deer Medicine.

I have a CZ527 as well. I particularly enjoy using 150 grain bullets (from .303 British diameter bullets). I think that rifle should do a bit better than the SKS - AK type actions. But of course be careful at the 'top'. My best results were with a powder no longer made (of course) so I will be exploring some other powders. I'll share.

When I had an sks I used imr4227 under 130 spire point bullets. Never loaded heavier bullets than that but my load would shoot 2 in groups at 100 open sights.

The funny thing is I don't need to load for accuracy lol, this gun shoots tula into a 3/4" 5 shot group at 100 and that's with the sights. One day I'll get a case of steel case hp or sp but like to try some bullets I have.
4198 was always a classic powder 4227 looks popular to.

There's the two bullets I got to load, I think both will be nice for deer. Fps loss only seems about 50 fps using 308 in the cz. Hope either will be in stock some day.

what cast you using, I'd like to pickup a mold someday but I'd like to stay under 130 or so.

The best mold I ever found - an NOE 129gr .314 mold I sized down to .311 after powder coating/gas check. I also use it with some success in .308. The bullets cast out with a tip so sharp it can poke ya.
The cast load with CFE BLK was 23 grains and 2.185, but I never got to extensively test it.
