Living in the 'burbs here in Australia, I'd have to find a friendly farm owner to go after our local pests, being rabbits and foxes. Roo's are too big for the 457 !
My pro Varmint loves Fed Auto Match. It also shoots lights out with SK Standard Plus that has been reprofiled with the Waltz die. I press them from .980 over all length to .960 with the Eley flat button tipped die with the ogive pressed to .2255 from .224 and it shoots sub MOA @ 100 consistently with maybe 1 flier in 20/30 rounds.
I'm not sure we we have Auto Match here in Australia @mlone7, but I'll go have a look. And I'm going to have a look into the die .... didn't know there was one for 22LR.
I have my 22LR trainers in 455 and 457. CZ did also make an excellent .223 rifle with the bolt action 527. Mine is in a MDT chassis and excellent for shooting range out past 500 yards. I run Norma TAC 22 ammo as well in my 22LR trainers. Although it provides the best groups, ours average about .750 MOA (5 shot groups), we also like the consistency of the TAC ammo. I can call my shots with it up to 100 yards. We (wife and I) typically shoot 100 yard range with 10-15 mph cross winds. At end of each target we shoot for hole punch. Sometimes it's hard to tell on the 50 yard range - because the holes are on top of one another. Both guns shoot under .50 MOA on 50 yards. We shoot a lot and have a lot of fun with the accuracy of these CZ rifles. Over the past few years I've noticed an increase in these 22LR trainers at the range. Maybe its the lower cost in ammo, but we'd like to think it because they're a lot of fun to plink.
I love my 22LR Trainers @marw1920 ! I had the 527 as well, in the MTR stock, and when it worked, it was beautiful to shoot, but I had so many feeding issues I ended up selling it. Your comments on TAC-22 are interesting,, as I always seem to have flyers, so it might be the batch I have (more likely it's just me), so I'll do some more testing in future videos.
Kinda surprised. I have a 457 AtOne American with a stock 16 inch match barrel (from Ebay) installed and it loves the Tac. It shoots jagged one hole 5 shot groups regularly @ 50.
My LRP, which has a match barrel seems to like it better, but I still get flyers. These could be me (more than likely) or I got a batch that neither rifle likes, but I do think it deserves some more testing, so stay tuned.
This is what i use in my MTR 20". usually MOA or less with the occasional flyer... good practice ammo imo. even up here in Canada i can get it for 60.00 a brick on sale, little easier on the budget vs SK and Eley.
Hi @bluecollarsportsman613, unfortunately in Australia suppressors are not available for the everyday shooter, so on the front I have an enclosed muzzle brake, which directs the sound forward, making it a little quieter, but mainly its for looks, and to ensure the barrel is longer than the chassis it's in.
Hi @seanjager8389, it's a MDT XRS, with the CZ457 inlet, which was oringally all black, but I took it apart and spray painted it. I think the colour was Rust-Oleum Camo Forest Green.
Thanks for sharing! Love the 457. The groundhogs hate it!

It certainly is a lot cheaper, and easier to find at the moment as well !!
Nice setup! the barrel seems very short, how long is it please?
@propionic0157 it's a 16in
@@Its_range_day ahh yes the tactical have a shorter barrel than the others like varmint. thx :)

Thanks ! It is one of my favourites !
What supressor are you using?

@@Its_range_day Thank you, That should work for my purpose as well as it's the same. LOL
Can i ask what stock that is?
