Some rimfire rifles are built to be tools. The CZ 457 Premium is built to be enjoyed. This is the dressed-up version of CZ's excellent 457 platform, wearing a European-style Turkish walnut stock with a decorative Schnabel forend tip, a hog-back profile with a mild Monte Carlo, and a proper cheekpiece that puts your eye right behind the sights the same way every time. Pick one up and it feels like a scaled-down centerfire hunting rifle, not a plinker.
Under the walnut, you get everything that made the 457 family a favorite among rimfire folks. The trigger is adjustable for weight, creep, and overtravel, so you can tune it to break exactly how you like. The bolt throw is a short 60 degrees, which speeds up cycling and leaves plenty of clearance for scopes with big ocular bells mounted low. The action is machined from bar stock, the safety is a simple two-position push-to-fire design, and the detachable 5 round polymer magazine has proven itself reliable across years of 455 and 457 production.
The long cold hammer forged barrel with a 1:16 twist wrings consistent velocity out of .22 LR and comes wearing genuine iron sights, a tangent-style adjustable rear paired with a fiber optic front. That makes this one of the few 457 models ready to shoot right out of the box without glass. Want an optic anyway? An 11mm dovetail is milled straight into the receiver. The muzzle is threaded 1/2×20, so adding a suppressor or other muzzle device is easy.
This rifle fits the small-game hunter who appreciates walnut and blued steel, the target shooter who wants a crisp trigger and a steady cheek weld, and anyone teaching a new shooter on a rifle worth passing down. At 6.39 pounds it carries comfortably in the field, and thanks to the 457's swappable barrel system, the platform can grow with you down the road. It is a classy rimfire that shoots as good as it looks.
It ships with a full set of irons: an adjustable tangent-style rear sight and a fiber optic front, so it is ready to shoot out of the box. If you prefer glass, the receiver has an 11mm dovetail milled right into it for rimfire scope rings or a rail adapter. Many owners run both, using the irons as a backup.
Yes, the 24.8 inch barrel is threaded 1/2×20, which is a common European rimfire thread pitch. Keep in mind that many US-made .22 suppressors use 1/2×28, so you may need a simple thread adapter depending on your can. The barrel ships with the threads protected and ready to go.
You can. The 457 trigger is adjustable for pull weight, creep, and overtravel, which is a big part of why this platform has such a strong reputation for accuracy. Most people find they can dial it down to a clean, crisp break that rivals rifles costing quite a bit more.
Yes, the 457 uses the same proven polymer magazine system as the older CZ 455, so magazines interchange across both platforms. This model includes one 5 round detachable magazine, and 10 round versions are widely available if you want more capacity for plinking sessions.
