Today we take on our third challenge of the series and attempt to drive a nail at 100 yards with the CZ 457 VPT MTR.
Wind conditions make it a hard shot but we are able to overcome the conditions and make the shot.
Let us know what we should try next in the comments below. - กีฬา
Glue 10 life savers to a paper, move back to the 50 yard line & see if you can put a round through the life saver without breaking it. That hole in the white life savers is .287". This is a tough challenge.
Good challenge idea
Josh Love your videos, I have purchased two CZ that really you sold me on. One MTR Varmint and the other just a Varmint. Thanks for all the hard work.
Thanks Josh, another lesson on how it should be done!! When I saw the video flagged up I just knew you would strike the nail! As always most impressive and a lesson to us all what dedication and practice can achieve. Regards from deepest Dorset 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Appreciate that Clive
Thanks, Josh for the new challenge. As always, your video work and editing make these great flicks to watch.
Thanks Terry
That's impressive! Keep this stuff coming...at 100 yards I think it's safe to say you have a tack (nail) driver.
Thanks
You nailed it! 😁 I feel special that you used my idea. I have another one for you to appeal to the old graybeards like me. Necco wafers. With your rifle I guess it would have to be at 200yds, but there are few reactive 22 targets as old as Necco wafers.
Will see if I can find some of them.
Thanks Brian
Absolutely awesome, I love your videos a fan for life. I was really glad to hear you say that you were not gonna shoot it at 50 yds. Well done my friend that puts a lot of people Into silence.
Thanks Joel i appreciate it
Definitely nailed it.
Haha thanks
We shoot .22 into a board one shot per target then we put rejects, sorted, ammo that failed to fire and or bulk ammo in the holes and shoot them at 100meters for a reactive target. We use rigs with silencers though so the sound report of a successful hit is much more noticed.
I've used cheap 12g shot shells as reactive targets, at a safe distance. Use a 1" wood auger bit in a chordless drill, to make a hole in a block of wood you want to split. ;)
Congratulations Josh !!!
Thanks Javier
Hi dear friend
Thanks for the clips

Thanks again for the videos that were released
You do
That's about like my Savage. It was a tossup between the two at the time. To this day it remains a tossup for me, but the CZ action is admittedly a bit smoother.
They're both Zachary guns. They shoot Zachary where you aim. :-) :-)
Awesome video 🖒did not expect it to complete smash the nail through. Would like to see the CZ to split a card on its edge, that would be beer spilling stuff 🍻
I actually split a card at 100 yards on another video. Take a look through my videos and you should see it, also split a bullet at 150 yards on a machete blade
One of the things I have done to improve accuracy is weigh my ammo. It would surprise you how much 0.1 grain can make a difference.
Some how we knew you would hit that nail !! Great shot ! You shoot a-lot more than your viewer's ever will,my question : how often do you clean your rifle and what's your procedure do you use. Thanks for the videos,we just bought our first CZ457 in the Lux model.
I clean when acccuracy falls off which is usually around 500 rounds give or take
Great shooting. Just reading about the new CZ VPC MTR looks like another good gun. Thanks for the video
Thanks Dwayne
I would've liked to see you try the second nail, but that was a fine shot my friend!
Need to do it on a less windy day
Awesome shooting Josh!
Thanks shooter
At my local range we hang up targets on foam boards with nails. I tried the same thing when I put my 5x25 scope on my mtr and I hit it (with luck) on the first shot. Would take a few rounds to replicate but it’s definitely possible at 100yrds.
Heck yeah, good shooting
Great shooting and fun to watch!
Thanks Bart
MAN!! That rifle shoots. Please tell me you are one of those very few people that shoots better off a bipod than a front bench rest! I tend to think a good bench rest will always do better, but dang, I can't imagine much better.
I honestly have never shot off of a bench rest
Awesome shooting
Thanks
Yup Josh you nailed another great video.!! are your CZ rifles barrel bedded or are they bone stock?
They are stock, no bedding
I finally subbed.. You have too good a channel not to monitor and pay attention to it!
That was a good, but not unexpected shot my friend! I installed the 419 30mao rail on my MTR this morning and took her out for a run. Zeros easily at 310 yds with 1200+ fps ammo. Still have to see how it does out at 4,5 and 600 yds and what ammo performs well, but so far, for what I'm up to, it's working out pretty well.
Appreciate it Titus. Sounds like you have a good setup for your 457. Happy shooting my friend
@@PursuitofAccuracy Thanks for the education in accuracy, and THANK YOU for your SERVICE my friend!
Awesome as usual brother nice shooting I have a perfect face for radio but if I didn’t I’d share a few of my vids as a comparison..
Haha i appreciate it yeahnahyeah
Great Josh! What is next? A head of a pin! My wife has quilting pins! The heads are a very small plastic BB stick 5 in a row 5 shots…. And yes want a shirt!
Haha that may actually be a fun challenge, might have to give that try
great vid you'll need to see if the M3 can do the same
Awesome Man love to see that and what barrel do you have on your CZ
Thanks for the comment. Its a Lilja barrel
Nice 👍🏻 I want to try that one!
You will "nail" it Ron 😆😆😆😆😆 Dad jokes for days
@@PursuitofAccuracy ha ha ha - I’m the father of 4 so I ❤️ this more than you can imagine. I have to do this now 😂🤣
Awesome shooting, your videos are always spot on. Question about your tripod setup, will you be doing a video on it?
I plan to do a gear video very soon covering all my gear but waiting on a few things to come in
@@PursuitofAccuracy Thank you, looking forward to it
Hey Josh
Nice shooting Mate , I’ve never seen that done before , Steve from Australia .
Thanks Steve
Waiting everyday for a new video :D Finally done with my build. CZ 455 in a boyd pro varmint, Vortex Venom 5-25x56. On my first try over 200m, 4/5 hits on 248m :) SK Standard+ did the job pretty decent
Nice
Sweet build
Try some premium ammo might get even better. Before I put my tikka T1x into a chassis I was hitting 4 inch gong with crappy cci standard velocity reliably at 254yds. It really is amazing how well these .22lrs perform nowadays
@@justins5923 The most expensive yet is rws subsonic hp. Shoots well? But Norma subsonic shoot exactly the same at nearly half price 😋 vendors around here doesnt have better rounds than SK on the shelf, but im gonna take a trip to a place that pretty much have everything worth tryin. Gonna be expensive though 😋
@@Jimmy.JAEGARN haha for sure. I found out mine loves eley tenex… and they’re about $27 a box CAD
Best I’ve ever done is a killing a fly at 50yds (that was walking across my target paper) with a brand new 16.5” CZ 457 MTR on the first day I took it out to the range. Guys at the range shooting beside me were pretty impressed.
Nice. Thats a small moving target
That's a great shot but.... If you use that method of insect control at home wifey is not going to be as impressed!!! Lolol have a great day!
@@K3Flyguy The fly was replaced by a paper hole surrounded by small traces of splatter. Good day at the range.
Great shooting. Maybe you should try the other end of the nail. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Tim
Good shooting Josh enjoy all your videos.
Thanks Buncha
Ha fun idea. 👍
Thanks brother
Hi Josh
I have watched many of your vids.and I like them all.
What is the make and model of your stainless barrel on your CZ 457 MRT? I just haven’t been able to find it in the vids.
Thanks
Frank
Hi Frank. The barrel is a Lilja. If you google cz 457 lilja it should pull right up for you
Good shooting Josh
Thanks
Can’t believe I haven’t seen this one
Me either lol
Question...in all your ammo testing you determined that Eley Match was your CZ's favorite. Are you shooting the same Lot # or does it like it all?
It seems to like it all but i am shooting one certain lot number.
Its my main match and competition ammo at this point
Would shooting bulk ammo in that rifle affect or damage the barrel or chamber? If not what kind of accuracy would it get?
No as long as its nothing crazy like stingers, they wont feed into a match chamber.
Bulk ammo is just super inconsistent and the groups would show that
I've wanted to see this for a long time.
Could you try 150-200? Off your balcony?
Would be interesting for sure
Yeah i think it would be pretty doable with a light wind day
Does the CZ 457 MTR make a big difference; and might it be any less reliable with non match ammo?
You cant run stingers etc but its no issue with typical 22lr. It will be more accurate than the non mtr barrels in most cases
Bought a 457 lux on your recommendation to go less expensive action.
Nice, let us know how it turns out Ian
I believe you would have NAILED it on the second shot if you would not have held for the wind. I got my CZ 457 varmint MTR and shot it today. I was getting half inch groups @ 50 yards. I was able to get all the pretravel out of the trigger but the lowest it would go on the #'s is 2 pounds but it is consistant and repeteable. It really don't feel like 2 pounds maybe a pound. It is a crisp break like glass. I have 15,000 rounds, three different lots of 5,000 round cases of the old Wolf Match Target made by Lapua/SK from 8 years ago when I shot Sportsman class with my Anschutz 1416-d Classic. I am going to try this Wolf before I buy anything else.
Yeah it would have been real close. Wind calling is some sort of magic i havent quite got down yet
Excellent job, let's see the nay-sayers do it !!! Keep'em coming
Thanks
Josh, What barrel are you running on that rifle and what chamber
Lilja .920 with their chamber design
I noticed you shoot with your bipod at a 45 most of the time. Is that better than 90? Or do you just do it for the height?
Its just for the height. I dont notice any difference between 45 and 90
What model Atlas bipod are you running and how do you attach it to your Arca Rail? Links please
Atlas bt46nc with a rrs atlas arca clamp.
Whats the torque specs on your front and rear action screws? Thanks
This stock has alum pillars so I was running 35 in lbs
Do u feel 457 is as accurate as vudu rifle? Guess am asking is vudu worth all that extra money. Does 457 rifles every beat the vudu’s in matches?
What scope u have on
Love this action and cz, but my 17hmr is not a shooter so far
I have never had great luck with 17hmr. Too few varieties of ammo to find something that works well
What type of cheek riser do you use? I just picked up a used Vudoo and it’s in the Manners CS1 stock and it’s way to low for me.
The manners doesnt have an ajustable cheek riser?
No sir. If there was a way to send you a PM I’d send you a pic.
@@clorr060482 so id call manners. They usually offer to install cheek risers for a fee on any of their stocks.
Youd end up with the best possible cheek riser that way
Difference in your gun there and the cz457 varmint mtr, other than the upgrades you’ve done ? Thanks
The stock and barrel length
@@PursuitofAccuracy yours is the varmint mtr?
@@22lr_plinking The gun in the video is the vpt mtr. Sorry misunderstood your question.
The rifle is stock except the barrel, trigger, amd accessories
If I change ammo do I need to clean barrel between ammo?
If its a different brand with different lube a cleaning helps, otherwise just send the first 20 or so from the new ammo knowing it may skew results
Josh, my 457 MTR has a tendency with it's first shot on a new magazine to shoot 2 - 3" off my aim point. From there each shot lands where I'm aiming. Have you experienced this with your MTR? Do you have an idea why this is happening and possible remedy to fix it? Scope and mounts are tight. Barrel hasn't loosened up either. Any help is appreciated.
Check your barrel channel for anything touching the barrel...even if its under the barrel. Sounds like its possibly shifting as it heats and cools
My MTR does the same ,not every time but enough to cause concern. What have you figured out if anything ?
Just checked action screws, both loose. Going to the range tomorrow
Great shooting! I want a shirt 4x black. How much?
I will ask and see what they say
Now only if these came left handed
Yeah unfortunately only made for "correct" handed shooters 😆😆
Can you do of these videos!
WOULD LIKE A COUPLE T SHIRTS
BUT I CANT SEEM TO GET THROUGH ON YOUR E MAIL
I would like to you try your hand at shooting a ARA 50 yard target. Try the factory one because a lot people or shooting CZ 452, 455, and 457 the factory class . Do one of the unlimited target too. I'm using a CZ 457 MTR and CZ452 in factory class right now
It is on the list. Need to get some targets
@@PursuitofAccuracy great can't wait to see it. Thanks
@@PursuitofAccuracy want me to send you some if so send address

good video
Excellent shot. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that is not a match chamber ?
I stand corrected
It is the match chamber version
@@PursuitofAccuracy There are 2 versions ?
@@mariogaudiomonte5866 correct. There is the vpt mtr and the vpt. The latter has a non match chamber and camo colored stock
@@PursuitofAccuracy thank you for the clarification !
What barrel is on your457?
Lilja 16 twist
What barrel is that?
Lilja
What is the preferred length barrel for your 457?
I like 20-22"
I bought a 457 trainer varmint. Its on the way. Its got a 16.5 on it. Less accurate than a 20 or 22 barrel?
@@seanbrown7954 its just a preference for me not really an accuracy deal.
The longer barrels help balance the rifle a bit better for prs / nrl
Im just getting into 22 precesion. Im was the 2018 1000 yard ibs champ N.C. factory class. Savage model 12 6 br. I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.
You see this all the time with thinner board. With a nail that gauge, you really need to use a CLAW HAMMER, not a gun, otherwise you get those splinters and blown out chunks.
Rookie woodworking mistake. You’ll get it next time, Josh!
No one came for my carpentry skills 🤣🤣🤣
Have you tried shooting pennies at 100, 200,300 and 400 yards. Like you did with eggs?
I have not tried that yet.
What scope and reticle are you running
On that rifle is the Athlon cronus btr gen 2 with the aprs1 reticle
@@PursuitofAccuracy I have the same rifle and scope inbound what rings and ring height are you running

Unfired would be more exciting 😆😆😆
i hope you paid your carpenter union dues.
I didnt......im a freelance carpenter....business is oddly slow after my first review
Don't count.....nail was purdy much already drove in...lmbo.
Next time get someone to hold the nail and start fresh.
Lol
Are these rifles you are using in your videos chambered in 'match' chambers or just the standard 22lr sporting chambers? (I believe there is another chambering called bentz chamber for auto loaders, kinda in the middle of two?)
I am asking this, because for best accuracy, the smaller diameter heel section of a 22lr bullet is also meant to expand and engage in the rifling, essential for stabilization, only possible in tight match chambers because of the increased pressure, since the bullet has no free bore ahead of it and chamber is smaller in diameter also...
Maybe you can try 'soft catching' bullets fired out of these rifles and check if the heel portion is expanding and engaging the rifling completely?
I believe consistent quarter inch and smaller groups are possible only by expanding and engaging the heel (thus making a uniform size projectile) and flat nose of the eley bullets also helps to decrease yaw and tilting into side winds
Please, please Michael doe just do a little research before coming onto, probably YT best .22lr channel and boring us half to death with your pseudo knowledge and superior attitude. Best accuracy is not achieved by a scientific understanding of metallurgy or ballistics, although basic knowledge is a help, it’s achieved by a half decent firearm and someone behind it who can shoot…….like Josh😡 and yes it was me who gave this post a thumbs down!
Michael. Yes most of the rifles on the channel are match chamber rifles with the exception of a few odd outliers like the semi autos etc.
The Bentz is a chamber in between a regular sporter (shoot everything) chamber and the Match chamber (shorter than traditional and smallest).
The rimfire world is so crazy about chambers most manufacturers and/or barrel makers currently are designing chambers around either Eley or Lapua currently. As an example: lilja cuts chambers for Eley and factory barrels on vudoo (typically made by a few different barrel makers under contract) are chambered for Lapua.
I believe almost every match rifle we have on the channel is capable of shooting 0.1" CTC groups in a perfect scenario. It's the combination of the shooter, stock, environmentals, ammunition, and the countless other variables that drive the groups larger.
I think even a rifle that can shoot a quarter inch at 100 yards in perfect conditions would likely be a half inch gun to most people. A lot of us still believe, naively, that the rifle is the problem when our accuracy isn't where we expect it to be.
I say that under the pretense that we are talking about a quality rifle, free of defects, with a quality match barrel, and a feeding system capable of delivering the bullet to the chamber in good to perfect condition.
I think everything more than the rifle I describe above is money spent based on preference, either for a trainer like experience, craftmanship qualities, etc etc etc.
Just my .02 cents on the subject. I don't want to pretend to know everything, because I simply do not. I am learning every day I pull the trigger on these rifles and these are just my personal experiences and what I have seen to be common.
Josh
Thanks for the vote of confidence Clive, I do appreciate ya 💪👍
