It's a big robust rifle designed specifically to be shot from a rest. Scope, only, no sights. Not a rifle I would want to carry very far. Designed to do one job - shoot small groups from the bench - and it does it very well.
Now that I’m settled into a real home I’m in the mood to let my collection grow again. I’m going into town on Tuesday. It’s senior discount day at the County Market and I tend to make it my shopping day to save gas on the 60 mile round trip drive.

Very nice shooting with that MTR! From all Ive seen that is on par performance from that barrel. I couldnt swing the $. I did get a Varmint model in 22wmr and with some of the cheapest 22mag ammo out there, Armscore, I shot these today @ 50yds

Great shootin’! Sometimes I like plinking and sometimes I like shooting the smallest groups in paper.

Outstanding work with the 22 mag. I've had a couple CZ 22 mags that I could not get to shoot as well as I expected, but, hey, that's the 22 mag. Never know for sure what you'll get till you go out and shoot. Actually, my best ever 22 mag isn't even a bolt gun. It's my 1885 Miroku Winchester Low Wall Hunter

Hey Bill.68, that’s some great shooting there and very encouraging for me as my CZ 22wmr came with several hundred rounds of Armscore ammo. One of these days I’ll get it to the range to do some group work. I have a scope on it and have picked up several different types of ammo. I just need to drag my butt to the range.

I love those 1885s, I once had a drop dead gorgeous Browning RMEF commemorative with 28” barrel in .45/70. How is your trigger, those trigger groups are reportedly best left to a gunsmith to disassemble, and mine was pretty darned bad.

Especially since I also had a CZ453 Varmint and its set trigger was about 12 ounces. It is the only rifle I ever owned where I had an unintentional discharge just from positioning my finger. After that I would set it, then sloooooooooowy creep my finger back until it touched. A very slight gentle squeeeeeeze, and bang. You have to have your head on straight to use those triggers.

There is some minimal adjustment on pull weight, but not much. All of ours (we have 5) have field/hunter pulls in the 3 pound range and are fairly crisp. Not match grade triggers like I get on our CZ bolt guns, obviously, but definitely better than the usual lever gun or semi-auto. The most important thing for me is that the triggers don't affect accuracy or my enjoyment of these guns.

Took oit the little 457 22mag this weekend and shot some decent groups. I had my 97 and P-01 but the pistol ranges were so packed I didnt bother.
I am in love with that 457 though, jist wish it wasnt so expensive to shoot. On a positive note, it loves the cheapest 22wmr ammo out there, Armscor JHP..
Keep in mind that there was no aiming point, I just center the green square in the reticle and hold it there.

Thank you my friend. I enjoy shooting the 457 and Im betting you will too so yes, take it out and shoot. If yours is anything like mine the Armscor ammo will surprise you.
As you can see above I just posted a few more nice little groups I shot yesterday.
Thats my life, shoot, clean, reload, repeat. I likes it though.

Got my Granddaughter set up with CZ 427 Scout. Nice to see her interested in something besides her iPhone.

Of course, Granpa has few of his own CZs to play with. An AR9 converted to use CZ 75 mags and a pair of CZ 75B SA's converted to DA/SA with CGW reach reduction and short reset kits.

I finally got my CZ 512 22wmr to the range for some ammo tests. It really liked the Remington 33 gr varmint tip. Funny, I had an opportunity to trade it off and thought seriously about it. Now I’m glad I didn’t and can’t wait to dispatch some ground squirrels with it this spring.

I can never say enough good about CZ.

I do so enjoy range time with the 75D!

Agree on the pleasure of the CZ 75. I’ve had mine to the range a couple of times now and I sure like it. Feels great in the hand.

I got me a hankerin for a 457 American in 22wmr now, wow, what a beauty. I can o ly hope it would shoot as well as my Varmint. In fact, it hasn't seen daylight in a bit so I think its time to get her out for some cheap(er) fun. Shooting all of those big slugs is gettin hard on the wallet.

Present. I like CZ's I have a couple. CZ 97 45acp holds 10 rounds and will out shoot 1911's that cost twice as much. I also have a 527 7.62x39. Has a set trigger in it that is just awesome. The rifle shoots very well. I havent shot it to much lately but I need to get it out again.

Local guy had a 452 MIl trainer with an upgraded trigger for sale for $550. Tempting but I looking to reduce some guns so I’ll stay strong and avoid it.
