Its 710 mm barrels, 76 mm chambers and five interchangeable choke tubes allow the gun to be adapted to different cartridges, hunting situations and clay disciplines. A precision CNC-machined, chrome-plated receiver gives the shotgun its silver appearance, while the classic Turkish-walnut stock provides a traditional field-gun feel. Automatic ejectors and a single selective trigger make the gun straightforward and efficient to operate.

The number 12 identifies the gauge, while 76 indicates the chamber length in millimetres. The shotgun is intended for compatible 12-gauge cartridges with a case length of up to 76 mm, subject to its barrel markings and instruction manual. Can 12/70 cartridges be used in this shotgun? Yes. A shotgun with a 12/76 chamber can generally use compatible 70 mm cartridges of the same gauge. A 76 mm cartridge must never be fired from a shotgun marked only for a 70 mm chamber. What is the benefit of an over-and-under action? The vertically arranged barrels provide a single, uncluttered sighting plane. This layout is widely used for both hunting and clay shooting and works particularly well when tracking moving targets. What does the selective trigger do? The selector allows the shooter to choose which barrel fires first. This is useful when the two barrels are fitted with different choke constrictions or loaded for different shooting situations. How do the automatic ejectors work? When the action is opened, the ejectors expel the cases of fired cartridges from the chambers. Unfired cartridges must always be handled carefully and in accordance with the firearm’s instruction manual. Why are different choke tubes supplied? A choke controls the spread of the shot pattern. A more open choke is generally used at shorter distances, while a tighter choke can maintain a denser pattern farther away. Actual performance should always be checked with the intended ammunition on a patterning target. Is the Redhead Premier only intended for hunting? No. It is designed as a versatile field and sporting shotgun. A dedicated target version with longer barrels and competition-oriented features may be more suitable when most of the shooting will take place on a clay range. Can steel shot be used? Steel-shot compatibility must be confirmed from the proof marks, barrel markings, choke specifications and instruction manual of the individual firearm. A 76 mm chamber alone does not establish compatibility with high-performance steel ammunition. Do all walnut stocks look identical? No. Walnut is a natural material, so grain pattern, colour and contrast vary between individual guns. These differences give each stock a slightly individual appearance. When is the CZ Redhead Premier the right choice? The Redhead Premier is well suited to a hunter who wants a traditionally styled over-and-under shotgun that can also be used for range practice. Its 710 mm barrels provide a useful balance between manoeuvrability and a smooth swing, while the 3.5 kg weight gives the gun a stable feel. A dedicated competition model may be preferable when most shots are fired at clays and longer barrels, a sporting stock or additional weight are required. A lighter field shotgun may be more comfortable when the firearm must be carried for long periods over difficult ground. Expert recommendation Before purchasing, shoulder the shotgun and check whether its 375 mm length of pull, comb height and trigger position suit your build. With a correctly fitting stock, the eye should align naturally with the rib without forcing the head down or stretching toward the trigger. After purchase, pattern the intended ammunition through several choke tubes. The same choke can produce noticeably different results with different cartridges. Keep the ejectors, hinge surfaces and locking areas clean, and lubricate contact surfaces only as directed in the instruction manual. A versatile over-and-under for field and range use The CZ Redhead Premier combines 12/76 chambers, 710 mm barrels, automatic ejectors and five interchangeable choke tubes with a classic walnut stock. It is a practical choice for shooters looking for traditional styling, stable handling and broad everyday versatility from one over-and-under shotgun. Attention! The modification of the weapon may vary, ask the Jahipauna stores for more information.
