CZ 455 American .22 LR Bolt Action Rifle - 5 Rounds | 20.5" Barrel | Wood Stock | Blue/Black

Tack driver! This rifle is way more accurate than my 10/22 and 15/22.

Very nice accurate rifle, very well built

Had this gun for years now. Tack driver. Beautiful gun. Out of the box accurate. Lots of squirrel head shot with this. Buds gun shop was great. Fast shipment to my local ffl.

Wife loves the gun. Great service from Buds

Great rifle shoots really good and buds gun shop is awesome!

Finally made it to the range with this new CZ455. I already know after one trip to the range that I am very impressed with this rifle’s looks,performance, and exceptional accuracy. This rifle is going to make many happy days at the range

This is my first CZ rifle and it will not be my last. It is very, very accurate out of box. 50 yards with 22LR cheap-o plinking ammo is right at 1" at 50 yards. Better ammo tightens that up even further. My only advice is to get the CZ 455 combo with the 17 HMR barrel. It will save you around $40 if you buy the barrel later, as I did. The factory trigger on this rifle is right around 2.5-3 pounds which is fine for a hunting rifle, but if you are target shooting, it is a bit heavy. I wish they had their set trigger on this rifle like some of their other bolt actions. Unfortunately, it is not adjustable. I purchased an aftermarket spring kit, and I now have it at around 1 pound, 10 ozs. Much better. The stock is very nice, not super beautiful walnut like the Lux version, but not ugly either. My bolt is not as smooth as I would have anticipated, but maybe it will loosen up with use (I have about 700 rounds through it between 22LR and .17HRM). My only complaint is the very cheap and very hard plastic butt "pad". CZ, that makes it impossible to stand the rifle up on a hard surface and lean it against something. It will slip and fall over. For the price, you should get a thicker, rubberized one that will give you some purchase on your clothing and allow a secure stand. That's really my only criticism. Would not hesitate a minute to purchase another CZ product. I don't know what they do to their cold hammer forged barrels, but boy are those things accurate. PS- the 17HMR barrel is even MORE accurate. Sub-MOA out of box at 50 yards, right at MOA at 100 yards (5-shot groups, bench rested on bags).

I wish ALL rifles shot this accurate right out of the box. Very pleased with rifle and Bud's service as well.

If you are looking for a .22 that you can customize to lokke like tha baddest zombie killer of all time to be the most extreme “tacticool” shooter at the range, this rifle isn’t for you. IF however, you are looking for a solid, quality built, accurate .22 that oozes old world craftsmanship then this rifle might just be the one for you. The Turkish walnut stock is inlettetted and checkered with precision. You can’t feel any high spots between the stock and buttplate. The barrel is free floated with aneven gap on both sides of the barrel for the entire length of the barrel. Compared to my Marlin XT which is also a good shooter the bore on the 455 seems to be tighter, perhaps reflecting a different manufacturing process with regards to accuracy. I have tried CCI, Remington (both the cheap Thunderbolts as well as the Golden Bullet) Winchester, Federal and Aquila Hi Speed. It seems to prefer the Aguila but shoots all of them well. I shoot and zero at 50 meters and the Aquila will group consistently at about 3/4 of an inch. The others clsoer to an inch. It comes with a very smooth feeding 5 round magazine but 10 and I beleive 25 round magazines are available. For carrying/hunting I’ll stick with the 5 round. The rifle is light and well balanced and a delight to carry. The safety is bolt mounted and works backwards from what we are used to but takes very little to get used to and is extreemly positive locking both the firing pin and the bolt. All metal parts are steel. The receiver is SOLID and machined from a single stell billet. The bolt will wear in to glass like smoothness with just a little bit of use—-don’t waste your time following youtube examples of polishing your bolt. A little bit of honest use will do the trick. And it’s NOT rough to start by any means! Warne makes machined solid steel rings for about $30. Leupold will run over twice as much and aren’t any better from what I’ve seen. American firearm manufacturers seem obsessed with making guns as cheaply as possible, and that I’m sure is a reflection of the American gun buyer, but if you want quality look at this rifle. I am going to get at least two more, a .22 magnum and the 25 inch barreled Trainer instead of just swapping barrels, but that is an option with this rifle.

Being a CZ fan, I was expecting a good gun, but even I was surprised, especially at this price point. The build quality on this rifle is superb. The finish on the steel, the wood stock, and the checkering are all exceptional. As soon as you work the bolt and pull the 2.5 lb trigger, you know this is a quality rifle. The fit and finish of the parts reminds me of my first Mercedes. I have only been able to shoot it once, at 25 yards, but after installing a scope, and making adjustments to bring it to zero, I was able to put 8 shots through a hole the size of a dime, with cheap ammo. Accuracy is much more predictable with a bolt-action rifle than a semi-auto, and this CZ is one of the most popular .22 target rifles around, second only to the Anschutz (which costs 3-4 times as much). It is clear why.
