CZ Rifles ROCK! I got 457 in 22 WMR and with 30gr Hornady I am doing 1/2 Inch groups at 100 yards (w a scope). CZ rifles are so well made compared to other brands. No plastic at all. Nice real wood stock and all metal body. Other manufacturers could learn something from CZ.
I got a 457 in 22 mag about a month ago. Athlon NEOS 4-12 scope. I've been sighting it in with Remington, Hornady, and CCI various loads. It doesn't matter which ammo I use because it groups them all in less than 1inch groups. Fantastic gun and scope combination. I'm really impressed. 👍👍
I have 4 CZ455 .22 cal rifles. The 455 was the model prior to the 457. You will find that these rifles don't like hyper ammo like Stingers with the extended brass. CZ website indicates that the 457's are made with a match grade chamber, and my owners manuals for my 455's specifically warn that extended brass rounds won't work well. My eyeballs are not as good anymore, and everything I shoot now needs 'optical assistance'. All of my CZ's shoot equally well. I prefer copper plated ammo, and have not used lead rounds in mine yet. Using Aguila plated 40gr high velocity ammo (1250 fps), and a forearm rest only, I have no problem putting rounds on top of each other @ 50 yds. These rilfes are capable of far better accuracy than I can shoot them. Enjoy your CZ!!
picked up a new 455 in 22LR yesterday. went in looking for a nice used 22lr semiauto to customize then saw this beauty. materials, fit, finish are impressive. cant wait to shoot this weekend
I've shot three 452's. The .22LR FS was the best shooting sporter weight rimfire rifle I ever shot. Gotta love those CZs! Best group average (4 groups on same card) was 6.2 mm center to center shot with Lapua Master M and a 2-7x Leupold set at 7x.
Three comments: 1. I want one, have one on order and lust heavily regarding one. 2. Just like any commercial ammunition, one needs to try several and find what the rifle prefers. Nothing against Norma ammunition, but each rifle has its own preference. I spoke too soon. You're already on it. 3. When shooting from a rest, have the rest under the stock, not the barrel. Support under the barrel will interfere with the barrel harmonics and distort the grouping somewhat. Did I say I really want one of those? Keep up the good work.
Man, I've been watching you for months now.... I just brought this exact rifle home today. I felt good about the purchase, but now... I couldn't be any happier. Looking forward to slaying some paper plates tomorrow.
I was looking for a 22 magnum in bolt action. While I was looking I ran across the CZ Jaguar. I couldn’t resist, so I put the magnum off for a while and bought the Jaguar in 22lr. I’m incredibly pleased with this rifle. My eyes aren’t what they used to be so I scoped it with a Vortex Crossfire 4x16x50. While the scope is a bit excessive I admit, the combination works very well. I have found that 42G Eley Contact fly very well. I can shoot dimes at 100 yards all day. The 28 inch barrel seems a bit quieter than shorter barrels, and the stock is absolutely beautiful. This firearm has become an absolute favourite of mine and everyone I’ve let shoot it wants one for themselves. I do have other firearms made by CZ so the quality and accuracy is not a surprise. Now I’m looking for a 22 magnum in CZ as well. I don’t know if CZ makes a Jaguar in 22 magnum, but I hope they do, if not I hope they will soon.
I picked up one of these beauties 5 or 6 years ago, and I just love it. It's a gorgeous rifle, and it shoots like it looks. A wonderful long rifle. Can't recommend it enough.
Hi from France, I watched the lands of a Cz 457 of a friend with my Lyman Borecam and their job is very very good . It's really clean . And the rifle's friend is accurate
Just did this with a Ruger 10/22 takedown. No rifle rest, just elbows on a table. Was happy with a fairly fast firing of a 25 round mag grouped the size of a plate, using Federal 510 40 grain solid round lead, 6 cents a round. Just seeing how it would do for coyotes. Next time doing it standing at a 100 yards, more realistic varmint scenario. Keep up the “really fun video”s !
Nice . I’ve owned a CZ Model 452 2 E 22 long rifle since 1989 , I love it . It shoots 1/2 inch 5 groups all day with ammunition that it likes . CA rifles are quality reliable and accurate rifles priced so that the common working man can afford them .
My CZ is a 455 Ultramatch and it was accurate when new but, I ordered and installed a trigger kit from M*CARBO. I think it's even more accurate. I like you shooting range. My girlfriend just sold an 11 acre property. We had nice 100 yard shooting range. I also shoot at a club. To get very small groups I try to meditate and remove all stress from my body. I use breathing exercises to relax. It makes me a better shooter.
G’day from Australia. I’ve got a Cz 457 .22 in the premium model. Absolutely love it and can’t bring myself to putting a scope on it as I just love these irons.
CZ were Brno originally from Czechoslovakia, very high quality rifles. Sights are probably metres not yards. My Father had a Brno model 2 with a 24 inch barrel, and he could hit a 20mm coin at 25 metres with open sights.
When you cant see the target but hit it anyway. Good rifle and Great shooting. Had a similar experience with an old Springfield rifle when I was younger. It made me believe in iron sights lol!
hello i own a cz 457 also i love shooting with the iron sights i can group within 12 inches at 200 yards unsupported with golden bullet or cc blazer ammo i love your channel
Also, keep on mind that hogback style stock is meant for open sights. If you add a scope you'll have to add a cheek riser to be able to look through it comfortably. Speaking from experience. I removed my scope.
@@maurygollob3140 Yes, there is. In fact that is what I had on the scope I removed. I left the CZ brand picatinney rail on because it has a very low height and I could still see the open sights as easily as I could without the pic rail attached. I can reattach the scope anytime with the throw levers on the scope rings.
@@garymeyer3294 Thanks for the quick response to my inquiry. Being able to move scopes from one rifle to another is why I started to use precision mounts. Now to find a CZ zero moa rail! Were you aware that CZ now has an online site that permits you to buy their rifles directly from them? The Jaguar lists for $485.00 with free shipping. I paid more for mine. Thanks again.
@@maurygollob3140 I bought my rail through their online store. I don't know if they still offer it. I didn't realize you could order direct for long guns. Thanks.
I have owned my CZ .22LR rifle for several years now and I absolutely love it! Using iron sights out to 125+ yards is no big deal, you'll be able to hit it all day long. I have owned a Remington .597 22LR rifle (it's cheap, and it's crap, so don't waste your money), I've shot a Savage, it's good, but it's not as smooth or easy to use as my CZ. The CZ is also adult-sized, not short like some .22LR rifles tend to be. If you get a chance, buy a CZ rifle, you won't regret it.
I have a CZ 22 LR Ultramatch. It has a longer barrel than most 22 rifles. I get groups of 5 rounds 1/3 the size of your baby finger nail. I use a 16 power scope and I fire SK match grade ammo. This is bench shooting. CZ makes great firearms. I also have a CZ shadow 2.
I just picked one of these up last week. Supposedly used, but unsure if anyone's fired it even, and the price was close to half new, I couldn't pass it up. It shoots so nice, the trigger is great, and action smooth. I'm pretty happy with finding it, now looking for a decent scope for it.
457 is a definite bucket list rifle, either the Lux or the premium if they ever have them in stock again...fairly new subscriber, love your videos. Quickly became one of my favorite channels.
You know that the barrels on this rifle are interchangeable? It's easy to swap to both .22wmr or .17hmr from a .22lr. So you need one rifle and three barrels.
I have the CZ 452 Ultra Lux super exclusive, in 22LR. Special ordered it from the CZ dealer around here in 2006. It is the most accurate of my 22s. With Wolf Match 22 ammo, it will shoot one ragged hole 5 shot groups at 50 yards. CZ made me a believer in their rifles after I bought that one.
Got a CZ 452 American mounted with a redfield 4x12x40, absolutely love it. But also recently brought a Diana N.TEC luxus. 177 in the same European styling as your CZ. Beautiful walnut hogback stock and open sights. I mounted a Hawke scope, but since removed it. Because that European style looks beautiful with open sights and I do enjoy using it that way. So I can see why you are in two minds weather or not you should get a scope on it.
I think it’s nice how the groups shrank with each plate. Makes a point about your marksmanship if anything. I’m considering picking up one of these, but I’m not sure between 22lr or 22mag. Would you care to spare me some thoughts sir?
I have a CZ 455 lux .22lr rifle with something like a 28" barrel. When it fires target velocity ammo all you can hear is fffft! It's hilarious and very accurate. I used it to introduce my boy to shooting iron sights. In my opinion CZ gives you the best bang for you gun buying buck. Pun intended.
I watched this better than a month ago. I wasn’t looking to buy one. But ran across a 457 match. Haven’t shot it yet next is to get a scope and base. Thanks for the video
Hello! Just bought a cz jaguar and my sight is calibrated in meters. So you were shooting at 100 meters, not yards. But no matter, cz offers breathtaking craftsmanship, accuracy and quality for the money.
Great shooting with iron sights. I have a Marlin model 80 bolt action with micro groove barrel built around 1950, I have owned it since 1965 I just installed a front rail and bipod along with a scope and can't wait to get to the range and set it up. right now, with the iron sights it shoots about the same as your cz buy the way I gave $25. for mine at a pawn shop in Colorado 1965
* I once had the 452 LUX version with 300 meter sights. They were regulated for ammo in the 1050 to 1150 fps range... for METERS of distance. IT is unfortunate to see the 300 meter sights abandoned in favor of 200 meter sights.*
I have a CZ 457 varmint. Its set up as a budget 22 prs style rifle with 20 moa rail and Vortex Diamondback tactical scope. With good match ammo and I can get some amazing groups at 100 yards. Best 22lr for the money. The wood is flawless and extremely beautiful wood.
Happiness is a CZ rifle and unlimited ammunition. I'd like to have one of every model in every caliber that they have. For now, I'd be happy with one of those in .22LR. On a fantasy level, that would be fun in .22 Hornet. I'd guess that one of these in a .25 caliber would be great for hunting deer.
We need a resurgence of 22 Hornet & firearms chambered in it. It really is an awesome little round. Wouldn't mind seeing more stuff in 22tcm either. Armscor needs to let other manufacturers produce that cartridge already. I'm worried it'll disappear soon 😬
I ordered a 457 Lux yesterday. Iron sights make it fun. I wear glasses and found that I can see the target and the holes perfectly if I take off my glasses with a peep sight. It’s called pin hole effect. It makes iron sights fun again……will it work with v notch sights, I don’t know. If worst comes to worst, I put tech sights on the rear. Can’t wait. No scope planned, be safe.
I have "CZ 452-2E ZKM Lux" and it is extremely fine weapon. Good iron sights what I want for hunting weapon. Low tech is when you have less issues like things breaking. Survival tool and one of the best of that. I have scope on mine, but just ordered better scope to it, Hawke Vantage IR 3-9x40 Subsonic .22 LR. So I think it will be even better after the upgrade.
Like I mentioned on your FB post for this video, I just got a CZ 457 as well. I think I will leave mine just open sights. I have another Winchester.22 bolt action with a scope for when I want to do that kind of shooting, but this CZ looks great as is and the iron sights are fantastic.
I have one of these fine rifles! I have no plans to scope it, I think that a guy should have one good open sighted 22 rifle around to keep his skills sharp with. And this rifle/sight combination is well suited for that! Mine likes an older batch of CCI mini-mag 36 gr. HP that I have had on hand for some time. If you buckle down on a solid bench and use a good background and properly sized black Bull's Eye target at 100 yards, you can shoot groups that rival a scoped rifle! Anyone that grew up on farms, ranches or in the country with a 22 rifle in their hands will know... :)
It's quiet because of a tighter bore. That's why it will group most any ammo. I put a scope on mine and the sight pin for bore sighter WOULD not go in. I used the drill end of a letter drill and it would do a 5 shot group with a dime or less group at 50 yards all day. They used to come with a target shot at either 50 or 100 yards and a dime would easily cover 5 shot group ! Best rifle I own PERIOD ! Even though it groups most ammo it definitely does better with one over another like all rifles. My 10/22 the bore pin is LOOSE in it and the Marlin is a little better but neither as tight as the CZ. ENJOY !
Awesome looking rifle almost bought one last year but with the crazy year we had I didn’t I saved my money but when things get better I would like to buy one
CZ’s are keeping up with production where others have fallen off- my favorite local shop has dozens of CZ’s but not a lot of rugers, mossbergs, or Thomson centers. Seems like all the $400-500 and under guns got bought up and are having trouble coming back in Stock. The smaller obscure shops seem to have more variety because people haven’t “discovered” them yet. I know Buffalo Outdoors has been shooting his CZ bolt a lot lately. I think they’re beautiful, well made Guns
I have one in 22 mag. The LUX version. Long barrel. They're hands down the most awesome guns. My favorite gun out of them all. I have a 22 lr as well, but the 22 wmr is my favorite. You can shoot anything you shoot with the 22 lr, but reach out further, and more punch of needed. Seriously. Get the 22 magnum. I use hornady vmax ammo, and get 1/2" groups at 100 yards.
I know you weren’t being literal by saying you haven’t pulled the trigger yet, but let me assure you when you do you’re going to be in love…excellent trigger and laser beam accuracy. I have a Tikka T1x in 22lr that’s also a tack driver with an amazing trigger.
I own a 455 Varmint 22lr and it is phenomenal! The accuracy is incredible even with bulk pack 22lr ammo! Two hundred yards and I can bust clay birds all day long! Cz makes some fine rifles.
What no ZOOMS? And the "check out this wood" LOL These rifles are great, wife just got me the CZ457 At-one for the big 50. Most accurate rifle i got by FAR. Great video

Good video brother! I just got one for my 68th birthday, and I have been shooting for 55 yrs. This is the best rifle yet!
Can't beat the CZ craftsmanship. Even with the big caliber guns. I also have one in 30-06. Beautiful shooting guns.

picked up a new 455 in 22LR yesterday. went in looking for a nice used 22lr semiauto to customize then saw this beauty. materials, fit, finish are impressive. cant wait to shoot this weekend
I’ve wanted one of those for a very long time, people say they are one of the most accurate out there, also say quality it top shelf 👍👍👍
Had an old H&R bolt 22 . Most accurate gun I ever owned. Bought it used about 1972. Lots of lawn mowing for that one.
I have the 452 absolute tack driver. One hole groups at 50 yards with about any ammunition
I've shot three 452's. The .22LR FS was the best shooting sporter weight rimfire rifle I ever shot. Gotta love those CZs! Best group average (4 groups on same card) was 6.2 mm center to center shot with Lapua Master M and a 2-7x Leupold set at 7x.
Three comments: 1. I want one, have one on order and lust heavily regarding one. 2. Just like any commercial ammunition, one needs to try several and find what the rifle prefers. Nothing against Norma ammunition, but each rifle has its own preference. I spoke too soon. You're already on it. 3. When shooting from a rest, have the rest under the stock, not the barrel. Support under the barrel will interfere with the barrel harmonics and distort the grouping somewhat.
Did I say I really want one of those?
Keep up the good work.
I love wooden stocks, they make a rifle look like a work of art!
I have a CZ455 American with all 3 barrels 22, 22wmr & 17hmr. Mounted a Leupold 4-12x scope on it and it’s a blast to shoot. Super accurate.
Can't go wrong with a cz they're fantastic rifles
+1.....love my CZ455
Dad has had his for 30 years. Shoots nickel sized groups at 50
@Rene Julio it must be cool to respond to your own comment with a different account LOL.
@chart viewer Ruger gunsite scout
@chart viewer didn't realise that you were after one particular type of iron sights you nearly want what's on a smle

CZ bolt-action rifles are some of the nicest around. I have a 527 in 762x39 and it is incredibly accurate.

Just Picked me up a TCr22. My first 22lr. Went for a 308 on m first rifle, and been into hand guns, 357, 9, 45, but im loving this little tacker!

Ove been waiting on this rifle forever. Finally in-stock at buds, bought it today, while I was at work.
I was just reading today that CZ bought Colt...... hopefully they can bring it back to its former glory
Thinking of buying a cz 22 lr, very well made, very accurate!
Sweet rifle Who Tee Who! You can't go wrong with a CZ 457 they are really nice!
I bought a CZ 457 Trainer this Summer (2020), now I just have to get out and shoot it! Nice video.
I just picked one of these up last week. Supposedly used, but unsure if anyone's fired it even, and the price was close to half new, I couldn't pass it up. It shoots so nice, the trigger is great, and action smooth. I'm pretty happy with finding it, now looking for a decent scope for it.
Nice shootin' with open sights. What length barrel does that model have? Thanks Mike
Well done. I cannot wait to get my CZ 457. Everyone raves about the accuracy of the rifle.
6:06 definitely keyholed that lower hole, this thing is gonna be a laser with some decent glass on it.
Yup, saw it. That was sweet.
I just got the CZ 457 American and had a scope mounted. It is so dang handsome
457 is a definite bucket list rifle, either the Lux or the premium if they ever have them in stock again...fairly new subscriber, love your videos. Quickly became one of my favorite channels.
Really appreciate you watching Mark!
I have a cz 452 iron sights... LOVE that rifle... This video is awesome, man.
Wanna buy another CZ in different caliber.. but only with open sights...
You know that the barrels on this rifle are interchangeable? It's easy to swap to both .22wmr or .17hmr from a .22lr. So you need one rifle and three barrels.
All I hear is good things about this rifle. Been thinking of getting one with no iron sights. Thanks.
They are nice
@@WHOTEEWHO Might trade of my M&P AR 15/22 for one. The M&P is nice, but too much plastic and not very accurate beyond 60 yards or so. Thanks.
Took mine out the other day. 80 yards was putting together 1 1/2" groups. Not bad for open sights.
Have shot a CZ 457 .22 a lot, and it is probably the best of any .22 I have ever fired.
Same! I even say that in this video. Best 22lr I ever fired
I have the CZ 452 Ultra Lux super exclusive, in 22LR. Special ordered it from the CZ dealer around here in 2006. It is the most accurate of my 22s. With Wolf Match 22 ammo, it will shoot one ragged hole 5 shot groups at 50 yards. CZ made me a believer in their rifles after I bought that one.

That is one fine looking rifle. That wood is great. Nothing better than a nice .22.
I love it
I have one that has a 24.8 barrel no sights. I put a Sig Saturday 4x16x44. Mine shoots dime size holes with Aquila 22 lr 38 grain hp.
Imagine what you could do with a scope. I can't see well enough to shoot 100 yards with open sights. Great shooting my friend.
Yes Sir, an nice 22lr bolt gun and a brick of ammo, doesn’t get much better than that! Enjoyed watching you have fun!
Like many here I love those CZ's thats some fine craftsmanship and the price is reasonable for the quality
Love cz
I think it’s nice how the groups shrank with each plate. Makes a point about your marksmanship if anything. I’m considering picking up one of these, but I’m not sure between 22lr or 22mag. Would you care to spare me some thoughts sir?
If target shooting get the .22lr...the .22Mag is at least 2x the cost to feed
A scope is a necessary add on for these ultra accurate rifles. A Nikon "rimfire" scope sure fits the bill.
I have a CZ 455 lux .22lr rifle with something like a 28" barrel. When it fires target velocity ammo all you can hear is fffft! It's hilarious and very accurate. I used it to introduce my boy to shooting iron sights. In my opinion CZ gives you the best bang for you gun buying buck. Pun intended.

I might have to buy one myself that’s a great shooting and great looking rifle
And the third paper plate completes the realistic usage and purchase justification stage of my research.
I just got one and cant.wait for it to get home. Awsome rifle.
I love it
Great shooting with iron sights. I have a Marlin model 80 bolt action with micro groove barrel built around 1950, I have owned it since 1965 I just installed a front rail and bipod along with a scope and can't wait to get to the range and set it up. right now, with the iron sights it shoots about the same as your cz buy the way I gave $25. for mine at a pawn shop in Colorado 1965
I have the 22 WMR in this gun. It is simply amazing. My favorite gun of all.
Would love to get one!
U can change the barrels in 5 minutes.22 lr 22mag and 17 cal.triggers are fully adjustable too.theyre small bore so a 22 cal jag wont fit
Great shooting. That's impressive performance from that rifle open sights!
I just got one and absolutely love it, great for training and saving money on ammo right now!
* I once had the 452 LUX version with 300 meter sights. They were regulated for ammo in the 1050 to 1150 fps range... for METERS of distance. IT is unfortunate to see the 300 meter sights abandoned in favor of 200 meter sights.*
I have a CZ 457 varmint. Its set up as a budget 22 prs style rifle with 20 moa rail and Vortex Diamondback tactical scope. With good match ammo and I can get some amazing groups at 100 yards. Best 22lr for the money. The wood is flawless and extremely beautiful wood.
Good shooting
I wouldn't walk up to just any stranger and say "check out this wood".
you have much to learn. lol
If you had wood like that you might... lol!
That's a great little shooter. Puts my old Remington to shame. Nice video brother.
Happiness is a CZ rifle and unlimited ammunition. I'd like to have one of every model in every caliber that they have. For now, I'd be happy with one of those in .22LR. On a fantasy level, that would be fun in .22 Hornet. I'd guess that one of these in a .25 caliber would be great for hunting deer.
We need a resurgence of 22 Hornet & firearms chambered in it. It really is an awesome little round. Wouldn't mind seeing more stuff in 22tcm either. Armscor needs to let other manufacturers produce that cartridge already. I'm worried it'll disappear soon 😬
I ordered a 457 Lux yesterday. Iron sights make it fun. I wear glasses and found that I can see the target and the holes perfectly if I take off my glasses with a peep sight. It’s called pin hole effect. It makes iron sights fun again……will it work with v notch sights, I don’t know. If worst comes to worst, I put tech sights on the rear. Can’t wait. No scope planned, be safe.
I have "CZ 452-2E ZKM Lux" and it is extremely fine weapon. Good iron sights what I want for hunting weapon. Low tech is when you have less issues like things breaking. Survival tool and one of the best of that. I have scope on mine, but just ordered better scope to it, Hawke Vantage IR 3-9x40 Subsonic .22 LR. So I think it will be even better after the upgrade.
Like I mentioned on your FB post for this video, I just got a CZ 457 as well. I think I will leave mine just open sights. I have another Winchester.22 bolt action with a scope for when I want to do that kind of shooting, but this CZ looks great as is and the iron sights are fantastic.
Yup the irons work out great
I've been looking at .22 in bolt action, looking forward to seeing how this CZ shoots, my CZ 527 in 7.62x39 shoots great.
I have one of these fine rifles! I have no plans to scope it, I think that a guy should have one good open sighted 22 rifle around to keep his skills sharp with. And this rifle/sight combination is well suited for that! Mine likes an older batch of CCI mini-mag 36 gr. HP that I have had on hand for some time.
If you buckle down on a solid bench and use a good background and properly sized black Bull's Eye target at 100 yards, you can shoot groups that rival a scoped rifle! Anyone that grew up on farms, ranches or in the country with a 22 rifle in their hands will know... :)
I passed up the CZ for a 10/22 Ruger with an ebony stock. Definitely picking the CZ up next trip! Thanks for sharing your review.
People!!
CZ makes an outstanding Rifle!! And this rifle man is rather talented when it comes to firearms!!!
LOVE joy peace wealth & abundance for ALL from Thailand .
a little less pressure on the forend of the cz might bring those groups even closer in. it looked like you were getting a little barrel interference.
Got one and just love it. I love the first one so much I got 4 more just so grand kids will have a good rifle one of these days.
It's quiet because of a tighter bore. That's why it will group most any ammo. I put a scope on mine and the sight pin for bore sighter WOULD not go in. I used the drill end of a letter drill and it would do a 5 shot group with a dime or less group at 50 yards all day. They used to come with a target shot at either 50 or 100 yards and a dime would easily cover 5 shot group ! Best rifle I own PERIOD ! Even though it groups most ammo it definitely does better with one over another like all rifles. My 10/22 the bore pin is LOOSE in it and the Marlin is a little better but neither as tight as the CZ. ENJOY !
Awesome looking rifle almost bought one last year but with the crazy year we had I didn’t
I saved my money but when things get better I would like to buy one
CZ’s are keeping up with production where others have fallen off- my favorite local shop has dozens of CZ’s but not a lot of rugers, mossbergs, or Thomson centers. Seems like all the $400-500 and under guns got bought up and are having trouble coming back in Stock.
The smaller obscure shops seem to have more variety because people haven’t “discovered” them yet.
I know Buffalo Outdoors has been shooting his CZ bolt a lot lately. I think they’re beautiful, well made Guns
I think people just are buying the cheapest guns first 😝
Love my CZ 457. Looking to get 2nd one. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching Terry
I just got the CZ 457 Lux. Can’t wait to shoot some small games with the .22lr
At first glance I thought it was the wildcat winchester came out with several years ago. This is a nice looking rifle.
been considering one of these, just havent pulled the trigger yet.
Looks like a really nice heirloom quality gun for the money.
I have one in 22 mag. The LUX version. Long barrel. They're hands down the most awesome guns. My favorite gun out of them all. I have a 22 lr as well, but the 22 wmr is my favorite. You can shoot anything you shoot with the 22 lr, but reach out further, and more punch of needed. Seriously. Get the 22 magnum. I use hornady vmax ammo, and get 1/2" groups at 100 yards.
i picked one up last summer.very accurate .the ammo it likes is sk flatness,and 2nd federal target
I know you weren’t being literal by saying you haven’t pulled the trigger yet, but let me assure you when you do you’re going to be in love…excellent trigger and laser beam accuracy. I have a Tikka T1x in 22lr that’s also a tack driver with an amazing trigger.
Got a 457 in 22wmr. Put an optic on it and you will get amazing groups.
I have always hankered for one. Being a lefty i know they make one. Your eyes are certianly better than mine !
just bought a Ruger American rimfire and put a vortex scope on it, great little setup. i like the looks of the one better
Good shooting with open sights 👍 I rate CZ Rifles highly!
7mm-08 vs 30-06 vs 350 ledge for deer what’s your opinion
That one is near the bottom of how fancy the CZ457 lineup is. Now with CZ acquiring Colt we’ll see what new could come out , like a new Woodsman.
Yup
I own a 455 Varmint 22lr and it is phenomenal! The accuracy is incredible even with bulk pack 22lr ammo! Two hundred yards and I can bust clay birds all day long! Cz makes some fine rifles.
Great shooting!
Hey! Love this CZ. Fun one to shoot
What no ZOOMS? And the "check out this wood" LOL
These rifles are great, wife just got me the CZ457 At-one for the big 50. Most accurate rifle i got by FAR.
Great video
Awesome! I love this CZ
