New CZ project idea

[BC 6.8]

I have a CZ 455 Varmint in the Boyd's Tacticool stock. It shoots fairly well in the stock configuration, but I have already added pillars and plan to do a bedding job as well. I'm thinking of a new project where I can shoot targets or vermin off my back deck, but I need it to be quiet (I live in a sub-division). I'm thinking of buying one of the 16.5" threaded barrels from CZ and adding a suppressor. I emailed CZ, and they said the barrels will available for sale this fall. I would also need a good suppressor which I know will take forever to get.

What are your thoughts on this project and what would you recommend for a suppressor?

Just have your barrel cut and threaded, most gunsmiths charge $75 to $100 for that.

I use a silencerco sparrow on my cz and love it. Now, I'm just hoping subsonic 22lr becomes plentiful and reasonably priced again.

Well unless you have the 710fps subsonic CCI you don't even need a supressor. When it was plentiful I stocked up on it, I have like 5,000rds of it and out of my bolt action a pellet gun sounds louder.

I can buy a new barrel with a magazine for $123-134 depending on how CZ wants to price it. That also comes with a magazine ($30), so I would rather have another barrel setup for around $100 for the barrel vs. paying a gunsmith $100.

X Caliber Genesis, very well made quiet cans! Although I may be a little biased....

If you get a threaded CZ barrel, you will have to get a barrel adapter. European threads are 1/2"x20TPI, American 1/2"x28 TPI. CZ Shop link: CZ 452 THREAD ADAPTER 1/2 x 20 TO 1/2 x 28

The new CZ suppressor ready barrels come with 1/2 x 28 threads, so no need for an adapter.

I was just in your situation. I bought a Boyd's stock and a varminter contour barrel. Had plans of chopping it at 16" and threading. While chucking it up to part the barrel I decided not cut it down now but wait a bit and see how it does. I did trim .100" from the muzzle ,threaded 1/2x28 and gave the barrel a good crown. I run a AAC Prodigy and F1 cans on my rimfires.

I am not done with the build yet but here it is as of today.

Very nice rifle. I really like the camo job on the stock. I definitely leaning toward a Sparrow SS or Spectre II suppressor. I really don't want to cut my current barrel because it shoots pretty good, but I might change my mind.

nice!!!!

Yoteman - Are suppressors allowed at the Rimfire Tactical match at Catawba? I plan on shooting there a few times this year.
