To be fair....changing the spring on a cz 457 is a pain in the azz!

Mine are all 452 varients, changing the spring was pretty easy, has that changed on later models/are later models not better to start with??????

They are a better unit yes with easy adjustment for over travel, weight and sear adjustment. 

The weight on the lightest adjustment is just about agreeable for me. To get lighter the spring needs replacing and is in no way as easy as a 452 Deker. The unit would need a complete strip down and with none that look the correct size in my stock I didnt bother.....for now.

I was wondering, what’s the general consensus on browning triggers? (The shiney gold ones).....

[Sausagedog 7,381]

I went and checked the zero on the 457 hmr yesterday after some missing recently.

Glad I did. It was off by over 2" high and left!.

Funny thing is i am not aware of knocking the scope that bad so as to cause such a drift!

Got it back to +1/2"@100.

-3"@150 & -9"@200.

I was pleased with its grouping just off sticks.

When I got home I pulled a patch through the bore. Wet with condensation!

The CZ rifles have gone up and up in price, decent enough but nothing special and now imported by The Sportsman Group, I would not want to deal with them.  My pal had two Browning T-Bolts .22lr and .17 hmr but in all honesty they both had issues with the bolt and ejecting spent hulls but I just didn't like the feel of them in the shoulder.  I bought a Tikka Tx1 and am very happy with that, very very slick bolt almost as quick as the Browning in my opinion and I also bought the steeper pistol grip to change from the standard along with a extra beever tail forend which really makes a big difference to the feel of the gun.

Great result , with a great gun 

love my CZ 457 .22lr  and so accurate with most ammo apart from Winchester & eley   , but most accurate even at 130 yards is Norma subs
