**Mouse over image above to zoom any area, or click on image to zoom the entire image.

The Pro Varmint has a heavy 16.5" barrel threaded 1/2x28 for use with a suppressor or other muzzle device. Riding in a black-painted laminate stock, it incorporates features found on much more expensive stocks. In addition to the receiver-mounted, push-to-fire safety, we chopped almost an inch of length from the action and slab-sided it to reduce its footprint and weight. The stamped bottom metal of the 455 is gone, swapped for a classy two-piece interlocking system. To make scope fitment easier, we ditched the 90 degree bolt rotation in favor of 60 degree, allowing for larger ocular bell diameters with lower ring heights. To top it all off, the 457 now features a trigger adjustable for weight, creep and over-travel.

This CZ Pro Varmint rifle is great for a suppressor host and trigger is great out of box, very happy with it so far. Very heavy and feels solid and well built. Only con is it only comes with one plastic five round mag and the metal ones from CZ are highly expensive.

This is my first 22lr bolt rifle and I'm really digging it. I can shoot more and less wallet drain. Great trainer gun for my precision bolt rifle Bergara HMR Wilderness in 6.5cm. Here a couple of match (see pic) ammo results at 50 yards.

Perfect base rifle for precision rimfire. I did change out the chassis and trigger and it can hold its own against rifles that cost a lot more.

I purchased this rifle after seeing a 455 in action. I am not disappointed. The 457 continues to be a very accurate .22 and it is built with high quality in mind. I have tried a dozen different types/brands of ammo and the 457 eats it all without a hiccup. Do not hesitate to buy a 457.

This is a nice, 25yd to 50yd .22LR rim fire target rifle. I have almost a 1,000 rds fired from this rifle, using almost every brand of rifle match on the market. This rifle averages 1/2" to 5/8" groups at 25 yds and less than 3/4" groups at 50 yds on an outdoor range. I don't intend to shoot it at 100yds ( ). The bolt action broke in nicely. The stock isn't bedded. The barrel is "free floating", but it wasn't as the stock touched the barrel in many places. I corrected that and now the barrel is a true free floating barrel. The barrel also wasn't centered in the stock, but this was easily corrected. The rifle shoots its smallest groups when the action screw's are torqued to 20 to 25 in-lbs. I adjusted the stock trigger to a scaled 2 1/2lb's and the trigger is creep free. I am extremely well pleased with the CZ457 Pro Varmint and with Bud's Gun Shop for the ease of purchase.

Hey this gun is an affordable tack driver. Not to heavy and heavy enough to provide a solid and accurate platform. Great as a rimfire trainer to a centerline piece.

Kevin O on 03/28/2023

Awesome little rifle. Solid and a good shooter. Just get the right torque on your action screws and your good to go. Not the first gun I've bought from buds and surly wont be the last. Prices are fair and shipping can't be beat. No reason to look anywhere else. If they don't have what you want they can let you know when they get it. Never a hassle with these guys. A satisfied customer for sure.

This is a very nice rifle and satisfies all the criteria I was hoping to meet. Specifically, I was looking for a 22LR rifle that is "more accurate than I am", under $700, a solid stock that could take some abuse, with a fairly short, threaded barrel. I added a 3x12 Athlon Talos scope (with BDC reticle) on a set of Warnex 722M rimfire rings. A friend and I took it out to the range last week to sight it in and see what I could do with it. We started by sighting it in at 25 yards, then spent most time at 50 yards. I used CCI standard velocity to re-sight in at 50 yards and found I could hit my point of aim at 100 yards using the 3rd "dot" on the BDC for holdover. I didn't spend much time getting groups at 100 yards, so I don't have anything to report there, but at 50 yards, I shot with CCI standard, Lapua Center-X, ELEY subsonic hollow point, Aguila Super Extra, and RWS High Velocity hollow point. I shot back to back with no cleaning or additional shots between ammunition types, which I know can be problematic, but I managed good groups for all 5 with only one "flyer" on the Eley. Lapua and Eley shot about a half inch below POA, Aguila shot about 1/2" above POA, and RWS an inch above POA. The best group was RWS at about 7/16", but the Eley and Aguila groups were almost as good (not counting that flyer). Lapua and CCI were 9/16" groups, so very close as well. I consider myself a fairly inexperienced shooter, so I am very happy with those results. All shooting was at a range with concrete tables, scope on 12x, and using sand bags for stabilizing the rifle. The best compliment I can give this rifle my friend who went with me to the range has lots of firearm experience and was impressed enough that he may have to put it on his list. Some additional notes:
- the barrel passed the "free floating" test, but it is slightly off center in the stock
- I really like the feel of the finish on the stock; easy to grip, seems durable and high quality
- the stock itself is comfortable to hold and shoot, and the comb works well with the scope for me
- it is fairly heavy once you add the scope, but this was expected and doesn't bother me
- I think the scope would do better with the Warnex 721M rings to lower it a bit as I had some extra room between the barrel and the front optic bell
- product delivery and order process was smooth and fast from Buds
- I like the safety on these rifles; simple and intuitive
- the mag release is a little hard to use; not a big deal but if the tang was just 1/16" longer it would be much easier to use without having to think about it
