Hey guys, thanks for watching TFB TV. I'm Joel with Precision Rifle Network. Today, the CZ457 22 long rifle. All right guys, so what I'm going to do for you today on this CZ457, just give you a straight up review of it, right? I'm going to give you a bunch of specifications and kind of the details, all those sorts of things. We get a zero to 50 yards on paper and then we're going to bang some steel probably out to 100 yards, maybe 200 yards. It's a pretty windy day and a 22 and that much wind is going to be a challenge. So I may winp out on that, but I'm going to give you a complete rundown of this guy starting with the specifications. I didn't say it right off the bat, but this is the ProVarmant Suppressor Ready. So this guy has got a heavy 16 1.5 inch barrel. It's threaded half 28 for use with the suppressor. Easy claims that the shorter barrel gives plenty of time for the cartridge to get a full burn while still increasing the rigidity of the barrel. So what they claim is it's just a tack driver and we're going to find that out today. One thing they did add that's new to this particular rifle was a American style push-to-fire safety. So I guess Hunter's Ed instructors and 4-8 shooting coaches have been begging them to incorporate that for years. So they finally took them up on that and added just a good old push-to-fire safety. One thing that they did change up and add to this model, which I personally like a lot, they did away with the 90 degree bolt rotation and they changed it to a 60 degree throw. So this is great. Obviously it's faster, but it also allows for larger ocular bell diameters and lower ring heights and things like that. So that's pretty great. And then also the 457 now has a trigger that is adjustable for weight, creep and over travel just with a screw. So that's pretty awesome. With the other ones like CZ457, when those first came out you had to go get your Yo-Dave spring kit or whatever it was to lighten the trigger and the 457 here now you can just adjust it with a screw. So that's pretty great. Again, this is chambered in 22 long rifle, has a 1 and 16 inch twist on the barrel. Magazine capacity is 5, but they sell 10 round magazines as well. The length of pull is 13.75 inches on this guy. Barrel length overall is 16 and a half inches. The weight is 7.3 pounds and the MSRP of the CZ457 Pro Varmate suppressor ready is $588. All right guys, I'm going to go ahead and get my initial group with the SK match ammunition in the red box here. I used this to zero and it was basically one kind of jagged clover leaf at 50 yards. So I expect good results out of this guy. We're going to go ahead and get five rounds as a group on this and then we'll switch to the federal premium and to the ELE as well. And we'll just see what we get. I'll give you my results. And we'll know which one of these amos, the CZ457 likes best. So let's get going on this. It's a pretty good group down there guys. I don't know if it's going to get much better than that. I'm actually really impressed right off the bat with this little gun. All right guys, this is going to be the federal premium gold medal 40 grain. And so this will be my initial five shot group on the federal. I just bought one. Well guys, I pulled the last shot hardcore. I think it's still right in there, honestly, with the group. And this is not a very good group compared to that SK ammo. So we're going to go ahead and just finish out, switch to the ELE and get our five shot group. And then I'll show you all three targets side by side and we can kind of analyze what's going on down there. All right guys, and final group is going to be with the ELE 40 grain match grain. All right. That looks to be a really good group down there too. Well guys, these are pretty dang good groups. The federal gold medal was the worst right at an inch. I'm going to flash some pictures up on the screen showing you an app that I used to measure groups to give you an exact measurement. It's even more precise I feel like than using calipers, trying to measure center to center. So here was the result from the federal gold medal match 40 grain. This was at 50 yards for a zero. And here was the SK match, the red box. I keep saying red box guys because there's a yellow box and there's a red box and people kind of know them by color. SK is the one that I figured would do the best. It actually came in second I believe, but I'm still a dang good group. The orange dot for reference is one inch guys. So this was a 40 grain again, zero at 50 yards. And for the win, this is the ELE 40 grain and I'm not even sure how tiny that is at this point I haven't measured this one yet, but it definitely wins. And I'm guessing it's right around the quarter of an inch guys. That is pretty badass for 50 yard group out of a 22, a real short barrel 22. So you know, when I said earlier in the video that CZ claims this thing is a tack driver, guys tack driver indeed. All right guys, I stretched this video out right to sundown. In fact, the sun has already set. It's pretty low around here and I need to be getting done with video for the day. It's been a long day, man. I can't even tell you the wind ended up being way too high for me to be able to stretch out the distance. Just at my personal range here, it would have been unsafe. We've got a horse pasture and houses and things like that. So I just felt like with the high wind, I didn't want to risk it. So I didn't get to stretch it out to a couple hundred yards for you and show some of those things. I appreciate it. The review of the CZ457 Pro Varmet Suppressor Ready. I know I did. It is a great little gun. I wish I owned it, but my buddy Zach loaned that one to me for this review. Really great guys. I mean, for factory gun shooting factory ammo, it shoots as well as my Voodoo 22, which is a full custom. Guys, take a minute to check out our sponsor Venture Munitions. Those guys are awesome.
