Overview
Built for shooters who want a rimfire rifle suited to both target work and varmint hunting, this CZ 457 pairs a bolt action with a 22 LR chambering and a 20.5-inch barrel. The adjustable trigger and two-position safety give the rifle a more controlled, deliberate feel at the bench or in the field, while the 5+1 capacity supports practical use. Its fixed target-style stock in Turkish walnut adds a classic look and an ergonomic grip, and the 7.08-pound weight keeps it manageable without suggesting a lightweight, ultra-compact setup.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Chambered in .22 LR, so it is suited to small-game and target use rather than larger game applications.
- The 5+1 capacity may require more frequent reloads during extended range sessions or varmint work.
- At 7.08 lbs, it is still a rifle to carry and steady, but not as light as some field-focused rimfire options.
- The fixed target-style stock and 20.5-inch barrel favor a more deliberate shooting setup, which may be less convenient for highly compact carry or fast handling in tight spaces.
