CZ 457 Royal 22lr Rifle - BRAND NEW 2019

Brand New for 2019 is the CZ 457 Royal 22lr rifle. This CZ 457 Rimfire is a complete new model of rifle and different to the previous CZ 455, CZ 452 etc.

The new CZ 457 rifle features an American style stock, which is finished with a laminate wood forend cap. The stock of the CZ 457 Royal includes swivel studs fitted to allow for a bipod or rifle sling to easily be attached.

Finished with lovely checkering on the forend and pistol grip, it adds a nice finishing touch to this CZ rifle.

For the new 2019 CZ 457 Royal, CZ have gone back to a metal magazine and magazine cap on this 22lr rifle and you will also find that the new CZ 457 has an adjustable trigger.

This video is an unboxing of the brand new CZ 457 and a short little CZ 457 rifle review. For any more information on this rifle then please feel free to get in touch.

Some of the new features included on this CZ 457 Royal are a bolt release catch on the side of the action. This can be easily pressed to remove the bolt, rather then needing to use the trigger like on the CZ 455.

You will also find a cocking indicator on the back of the 22lr rifle bolt.

Finally, on the end of the CZ rifle barrel is a 1/2" x 20 UNF thread to allow for the fitment of a sound moderator.

Cz is the best. American companies should take notice. More expensive but so worth it.

My father has had a CZ in .22lr my whole life as far as I can remember, and it is by far the best bolt action .22lr I have ever shot. Straight and true, very reliable.

Have been a Brno fan since childhood and fired all the old models. This one is OUTSTANDING in every department... bolt configuration, stock, trigger ....

[marcturcasso]

I love the 457. They reduced the bolt throw to 60 degrees! Now you can use medium and low rings and the bolt will clear the optic. The action is sized nicely, the trigger is good, and you can change calibers if ya wanna. Even with the model # cut into the stock, it is still much better looking than those tactical looking synthetic stocks. quality is there. nice rifle and thanks for the video

Thanks for the review very nice CZ, had a 452 previously. Also thanks for the tip on barrel threading. Have a Browning t bolt clearly factory threaded. Also Have a CZ 527.223 night sky edition. Was supposed to come factory threaded 14/1. However when i picked it up i noted the silver color threading, and it was half by twenty, not as stipulated on the CZ website. Clearly not factory threaded.

So in the us market, can we purchase and adapter to convert the 1/2x20 to 1/2 x28 ? Or is this just for the other side of the pond

[pickinyou]

Why the hell would they take such a nice rifle, and ruin it completely by stamping the name into the side of the stock, and especially in large block letters? That made it just ugly enough that I will never buy one.

I have the 2022 CZ Royal 457 with 20" barrel and shooting on sandbags with SK Standard Ammo 5/16" at 50yds. ---- if you com across this rifle buy it. You will not be disappointed.

Must agree the laser imprint is sort of gaudy and pointless. But harmless. Would have liked to see the 16 in rifle in Royal.

[BoogalyTheGreat]

It looks like a fantastic rifle.... to bad there aren't so many CZ distributors near where I live in the states. Thanks for the review!

Great review. Looks a very nice little rifle .

[duncnz]

I hate the stock shape and think the writing on the side is an eyesore and will put off potential buyers, the new bolt etc is great, scopes can now be mounted lower .

[Strutingeagle]

This bloke has a long tail bolt actioned CZ on his hands there doesn't he. There must be an advantage to the longtails for them to have changed their design given the fact the 452 and 455 actions were damn good. Cheaper to make or better accuracy?

[paulallenMacca]

What’s the difference between this rifle and the CZ457 American I am considering getting on are they good for shooting Rabbits and vermin and is the ammo in the cheap side.Does Long Rifl Ed mean it has a long barrel.

[johninphx]

Nice, I still like the LUX best. I have a 455 Lux I think I will be trading for the 457 Lux. Thanks Again for another great review.

[paulallenMacca]

Can you tell me what does WMR and HMR MTR stand for, I like the look of the CZ457 American and CZ457 and CZ457 Varmint, Whats the best one for shooting Rabbits can it kill a Fox.

[tonybennett]

Has many characteristics of the Weihrauch 60j, trigger may differ as the 60j can’t be beaten imo . The safety, bolt release, bolt throw all similar. Nice rifle apart from the name stamped on the side 🤔

[frankcuschieri]

Pistol grip looks a bit chunky, apart from the lettering it seem like a nice rifle. Can't go wrong with a CZ, I own a 452 and its great. Hopefully they make the 10 shot mag in steel more common.. Here in Australia, they are very hard to find.. We only ssem to have plastic 10 shot mags avalible.

[fedup]

Checkering on forearm is questionable, name in side of stock is stupid. Stock looks like it could be excessively thick and clubby butmaybe in hand, it looks better. Deluxe inletted sling swivels are nice. Will have to find one to look at in hand.
