Yeah, a good gun, shame they use a spring assisted type of extraction system though, unless I am mistaken.I am sure most Tikkas  do not have this problem though

Mine never has had any issues with extraction unlike some Browning T-Bolts.  I am not knocking the CZ guns at all as there are thousands out there doing a good job and I have had a couple but I find the Tikka bolt far smoother than the CZ or Browning but there again we all like different things.

Phil the new CZ 457 is just as good as the tikka, if not a bit better . As you know I have both  . CZ mags are far better than the tikka shit ones

I agree with Villaman Phil  in that the 457 is NOT the same rifles as its predecessors (455, 457).I would have a Tikka in a heartbeat if I did NOT have the 457.

My previous .22LR was an Anschutz 1416 DG, which was a good rifle, but in my opinion the 457 is easily as accurate as the Anschutz , but the mechanical function of the 457 is superior to that of the Anschutz. The 457 also has the feel of a very modern rifle.

Sorry, the above should read (455 & 452)

My mate has Anschutz , my CZ is far better in every way apart from the trigger may be slightly better on the Anschutz and that’s a may be .

Mine was a royal then fitted the synthetic stock

I am impressed with the 457 trigger.Mine is still at the factory setting and I probably will keep it this way.Yes, my Annie had a good trigger, but the 457 trigger more predicable and for me, easier to use.

Just so you can join the exclusiveness that is the CZ457 synthetic group!!

I’ve got a synthetic cz, but it’s a 452 which I prefer to the 455 but anyway they’re both shit apparently

I have done the triggers on two 457's.

It's easy and so worth it.

I only have one 457 now in hmr. It is very good. The trigger breaks perfectly with near to no conscious effort. 

I like the strength of the striker on the 457's

I do not like how the crown is finished however it does shoot, except for 20g bullets....so far.

I've swapped the 22lr 457 for a 455 in hmr. There was two in the shop. I had a sneaky feel of their triggers. One seemed to have some creep and the other not so I put my name to that one!

To be honest, it was nice to be handling the older action again!
