jamie g 17 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 accuracy will be the same mate no matter. its down to choice really do you want a heavy barrel or the light barrel ? light would be better if you do alot of walking round the shoot. if you shoot from a car then go for the heavy Quote Link to post
oxo 472 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I have the american, cracking little gun, no need for a heavy barrel on a .22 so its down to looks, both as good as each other. Quote Link to post
richie 1 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 i have the varmint & do 90% of my shooting from the vehicle, for me the heavier is better, sits in position firm...# you cant go wrong with either of these models, accurate as you like.. Quote Link to post
Sterry 0 Posted December 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Most of mine will be walking with lil bit now and then from the back of the 4x4. Which is cheaper in the case they are pretty damn close. i got given a quote for £370 for the cheaper one of the two (cant remember which) does this sound dear?? Quote Link to post
tom.k 8 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 to be honest it it prob will not make much differance they will both just as good but heres apoint to think about the cz american does not have a ajustable trigger and is like pulling a brick with out the eric brooks trigger kit so if youron abuget the kit plus a gunsmith fitting it if you cannot will be about aprox sixty sheets this could be spent or added to a good scope etc Quote Link to post
oxo 472 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 None of the cz 452s have an adjustable trigger, the 453 has a set trigger. You can buy a trigger kit from SYSS, ebay or eric brookes, try the trigger first though you maybe surprised, mines ok. If i was buying a new cz i would go for the style with a "16 barrel.

Forgot to say the kit is about £12 and easy to fit. Quote Link to post
Sterry 0 Posted December 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 When you say easy to fit you mean even a fool like me can fit it? i was thinking about getting a trigger kit anyway so one i can do myself will be the ticket Quote Link to post

Which is cheaper in the case they are pretty damn close. i got given a quote for £370 for the cheaper one of the two (cant remember which) does this sound dear?? i got my CZ452 Varmint HMR - long/heavy barrel from ESS - Essex Shooting Supplies in Colchester, Essex for £280 Fab little place (got all you'll need) If your interested i'll give you the number and address and put a word in for you. The 16'' barrel will cost more, so if £370 is the price for the cheaper of the two - ££££'s!!! All the best mate Carl Quote Link to post
Sterry 0 Posted December 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Cheers mate if you could, it wont be for a few months while i get money sorted and the paperwork butr much apprieated. i always had the idea of doin bit of traveling becuase i think my local is a pretty bad rip of merchant and to be honest the only reason i use him is the next closest is Essex guns which is still few mile away but damn sight cheaper.

ESS - Essex Shooting Supplies Ltd. Address: Cantields Farm. Easthorpe Kelevenden . Colchester. Essex. CO5 9HH. Phone: 01206 330324 It looks like a farm yard from the outside, NO signs or any kind of shop front, you even have to enter the shop through the house's front door!! But they do have everything you will ever need to start off with - good prices too. All the best Quote Link to post
