    CZ 457

    If you did put money on it, you win! M6-1.0 is what it is. Excuse me for a minute while I get hold of The Polished Knob to see if they can get something made up for me..:D

    CZ 457

    Hey guys.. I received my 457 American yesterday. I confirmed a suspicion that I had, and I think some of you will be excited about... Yep, that tiny little round bolt knob is threaded on!! No more trying to find someone who can machine the knob off and thread it. Just pick a knob and screw...

    CZ 457

    If you look at the picture of 455 and 457 receivers in post 54 above, you will see a rear action screw hole between the cutout for the trigger group and the recoil lug slot. Some have mistaken that hole as a mounting hole for the trigger group, but the rear of the group is pinned in place with...

    CZ 457

    Both, the 455 and 457, have an 11mm dovetail, so in that regard it should fit. A couple of things to keep in mind though.. First is that the 457 receiver is almost an inch shorter than the 455, but I'm pretty sure that any "extra" rail could just be mounted so that it overhangs the front of the...

    CZ 457

    So far Frankr, the MTR's, Varmints and Americans have all been reported as having pillars. Nice little surprise! I thought that only the MTR's would be pillared. And, I couldnt agree with you more on the bolt knob. If CZ had only threaded them on, then the new VPT would have been perfect for...

    CZ 457

    No Sir.. That is not correct. The MTR stands for Match Target Rifle and comes equiped with a CZ proclaimed "match" quality barrel which has a match tolerance chamber. None of the other heavy barreled 457's are advertised as such. It would be nice if you are correct, but I have seen nothing...

    CZ 457

    Absolutely.. Please do! I've only seen targets from 2 different MTR's so far. Both have been .25", or better, 5 shot groups so far. These MTR's are showing some promise of being great shooting rifles. Post a pic of the test target that came with the rifle too if you get a minute. The test...

    CZ 457

    Yes, I do have a copy. It is a US copy not a UB copy as someone else was wondering. Is there anything in it you'd like me to post a picture of? Interesting to hear about the Royals. Are they coming to the US market? I assume they are based on your comment and that I've seen them for sale...

    CZ 457

    The 457 receiver is almost an inch shorter that the 455.. So, no, you will not be able to swap stocks between the two receivers.

    CZ 457

    Man, CZ USA can be soooo confusing! In regards to the VPT.. On social media, they say it comes with either a 16.5" or a 24" threaded bbl. In the 2019 CZ USA catalog it says that the bbl options are 16.5" and 20.5" on the page with the pictures of it. When you look at the pricing and spec...

    CZ 457

    If you mean this one, I would say that Manners is in the 457 game for sure. The pictured rifle is in the CZ USA 2019 catalog and it is listed as a "Manners carbon fiber composite stock" used on the precision trainers.

    How accurate is your 22 rifle?

    A little lot testing in my backup rifle.. Its a home built CZ455 with a Lilja drop-in, Fly trigger, IOR Spyder. My DJ built Annie is a "bit" better than this one with the same ammo. It will print some .1's, but mostly .2's with 3 of these lots.

    Dude.. I never said that you were doing anything "shifty", nor did I accuse you of being biased. As a matter of fact, I originally posted a comment, without specifically mentioning you or anyone else, about cherry picked targets, to which you seemed to be a little defensive in your reply. I...

    Sorry, should have used the word "unbiased" instead of "unobjective" in my original post..

    I'm confused.. Is there some reason that I should prefer a slanted or biased view?

    After spending all that money do you wish...

    I checked out your target on the 6 x 5 thread. Very impressive! Especially if it's taken into account that various brands/varieties of ammo were shot without "cleaning and refouling" between each. (Sorry, "seasoning" a bbl is a totally different thing). Please don't take this the wrong...

    "Obvious ones"? Just curious, what flaws are you seeing? All I ever read is that a Vudoo is the Cat's Meow. I've seen some nice targets, but they are most likely cherry picked. Personally, I've witnessed failures to feed, failures to eject spent rounds and failures to eject live rounds. To...
