Default CZ Kevlar...is it a BC or a HS ?

Does anyone know how to identify the manufacturer of Kevlar stock on CZ527
Whether it is a "Bell Carlson" or "HS Precision"
Does a guy have to remove the stock from the action to see the inlet area and look for something?
Thanks
AL

Not a clue . The first ones were HS and the later B&C.

Don't the newer B&C ones have vents under the barrel?

I believe the cooling vents are only a courtesy of James Calhoon on his offerings using the Varmint Kevlar 527.

Default CZ stock pistol grip/palm swell & color/finish

Are the pistol grip and palm swell the same on both brands - anyone know?
Also, was there only one color/finish ?
I'd prefer to own a HS Precision just for the name brand.

I'm in the process of buying a used CZ527 223 with Kevlar stock and swapping it out with my 17Remington wood stock.
I'll probably re-sell the 223 with wood stock.

I have an older CZ527 Kevlar that has H-S PRECISION on the butt pad. The other one I have has Decelerator TM on the butt pad. Other than that I cannot tell the difference as the pads look identical, they are both black with grey and both look like they come from the same mold.

I believe that Doug is right about the cooling vents being a Calhoun touch as my 19 Badger was in a CZ527 Kevlar with the vents. I believe the stock was B&C.

I wouldn't worry about having an H-S Precision just for the name brand. B&C make just as good a stock as H-S in spite of what some people perceive. The target, top left, was shot with the H-S using the same load as the top right target shot from the B&C. Had a bit of an "off group" with the B&C as it usually shoots a bit tighter than that.
