niffkin 1 Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Can anyone please help me in my decision. Im looking at either a Sako Quad varmint with a synthetic stock or a CZ 453 Varmint both 17hmr. Ive heard that the CZ synthetic stock is a little flimsy and they dont do a 10 shot mag . Any advice would really help ! Niffkin Quote Link to post

CZ is the donkeys and no advantage I can see in the SAKO, just costs more!!! And agreed, nothing flimsy about the CZ synthetic stock, its a lot more solid than the Sako in my view.....and why a 453???? Whats wrong with a 452...are you desperate for a set trigger???

Ive read that most people upgrade the trigger unit on the 424 and the 453 is suposedly better . Wrong choice ? Quote Link to post

Ive read that most people upgrade the trigger unit on the 424 and the 453 is suposedly better . Wrong choice ? As far as I am aware the trigger on the 453 is completely different to the 452 and is a SET trigger, the rest of the gun is identical. If you want a set trigger then fine! Upgrade on a 452 trigger will cost between about £8-£13 depending on exchange rates and where you buy it from!! (mine cost £8.32p TOTAL including carriage, as a direct import from Eric B about 10 months ago, but exchange rates have changed!!) Quote Link to post

Ive read that most people upgrade the trigger unit on the 424 and the 453 is suposedly better . Wrong choice ? I haven't upgraded mine...Its never been a stumbling block in my opinion. My gets used almost daily.. But I would never say never... It doesn't make it a bad rifle... And as Deker says....it costs pennies to sort if the triger is not to your liking. Set trigger for a .22????? I shoot too quickly to think about it. Nah..not for me. Quote Link to post

elvolcan 0 Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 The CZ 452 .17HMR Silhouette is awesome, the stock is excellent (not flimsy at all lol) and once upgraded with eric brooks trigger kit it an outstanding gun for the price. Mine is in my sig. ATB Quote Link to post
