Yeah, a good gun, shame they use a spring assisted type of extraction system though, unless I am mistaken.I am sure most Tikkas  do not have this problem though

Mine never has had any issues with extraction unlike some Browning T-Bolts.  I am not knocking the CZ guns at all as there are thousands out there doing a good job and I have had a couple but I find the Tikka bolt far smoother than the CZ or Browning but there again we all like different things.

Phil the new CZ 457 is just as good as the tikka, if not a bit better . As you know I have both  . CZ mags are far better than the tikka shit ones

I agree with Villaman Phil  in that the 457 is NOT the same rifles as its predecessors (455, 457).I would have a Tikka in a heartbeat if I did NOT have the 457.

My previous .22LR was an Anschutz 1416 DG, which was a good rifle, but in my opinion the 457 is easily as accurate as the Anschutz , but the mechanical function of the 457 is superior to that of the Anschutz. The 457 also has the feel of a very modern rifle.

Sorry, the above should read (455 & 452)

My mate has Anschutz , my CZ is far better in every way apart from the trigger may be slightly better on the Anschutz and that’s a may be .

I am impressed with the 457 trigger.Mine is still at the factory setting and I probably will keep it this way.Yes, my Annie had a good trigger, but the 457 trigger more predicable and for me, easier to use.

I have done the triggers on two 457's.

It's easy and so worth it.

I only have one 457 now in hmr. It is very good. The trigger breaks perfectly with near to no conscious effort. 

I like the strength of the striker on the 457's

I do not like how the crown is finished however it does shoot, except for 20g bullets....so far.

I've swapped the 22lr 457 for a 455 in hmr. There was two in the shop. I had a sneaky feel of their triggers. One seemed to have some creep and the other not so I put my name to that one!

To be honest, it was nice to be handling the older action again!

      RWS Subsonic Hollow Points 40 Grain
      By Rimfire Rifles Freedom
      Hello all.?
      Just an update as it has been a while.I have been looking for a subsonic .22LR hollow point that shoots well from a cold clean bore and have recently started using RWS subs which do well, typically from the first shot..I have used a few different brands of subsonic H.P.s and they all group quite well after 5 or so fouling shots, but RWS like the cold clean bore,needless to say I am a happy and for me, decent shooting.?.I have used the RWS before in the old Annie 1416 DG and it was equally consistent in that rifle.
      A couple of typical below all from a cold clean bore..My scope is a Hawke Vantage x2 -x7 32mm A.O. with illuminated reticle which is a great field scope but lacks magnification for target shooting so is sometimes difficult to deduce if a shot has been pulled, but I love the scope.
      Have a good weekend all.?

      CZ457 SYNTHETIC UPDATE
      By Rimfire Rifles Freedom
      Hi all, just an update.I have had this rifle for over a year now and still really like it a lot. I have not modified it in any way and it is as out of the box.
      It is an easy rifle to shoot well with a pretty good trigger (pulling at 2.6 lbs out of the box and very smooth), accurate, lightweight and utterly reliable.
      I now have the benefit of hindsight and  purchasing this rifle was a good decision and I would do so again absolutely.
      I use an inexpensive but very good Hawke Vantage x2-x7 32mm A.O. scope with an illuminated reticle. I sometimes use a SAK moderator on the gun, a very good mod.
      Have a good weekend.?.

      Flobert
      By Rimfireboy!
      If anyone’s interested, I decided to pattern and compare .22 and 9mm flobert shotshells. Using my 14 inch Anschütz, I shot a .22 Winchester superX #12 shot at a rat target at five yards to see if it would likely be effective at that range. To compare using my 24 inch Manu-Arm bolt action, I shot 9mm fiocchi #6 shot at the same range, and 9mm rws acorn brand #10 at the same range. I went on to extend the range of the 9mm flobert’s at ten, fifteen and twenty yards for comparison. Here’s the results.....
