The CZ 457 Varmint Rifle in .22 LR combines the proven performance of a bolt-action platform with a purpose-built varmint configuration. Part number 02340 features a heavy, cold hammer-forged barrel with a durable black nitride finish, helping provide consistent performance for target shooting, small-game hunting, and varmint applications. The .22 LR chambering offers manageable recoil and broad ammunition availability, making this rifle a practical choice for experienced shooters and recreational use where permitted by law.
The rifle is built around a steel receiver with an integral 11mm dovetail for compatible optics mounting. It uses a detachable 5-round magazine and a two-position push-to-fire safety for straightforward operation. An adjustable trigger allows the shooter to tune the trigger feel to personal preference, while the right-hand configuration and recoil pad support comfortable handling. The barrel is designed with a 1:16-inch twist rate suited to common .22 LR bullet weights.
A fixed Turkish walnut varmint-style stock gives the CZ 457 a classic appearance while providing a stable, full-size shooting platform. Checkering improves purchase at key grip areas, and front and rear swivel studs support the use of a compatible sling. The rifle is supplied without traditional open sights, allowing the shooter to configure the integral dovetail with an optic suited to the intended application. As an FFL firearm, this CZ rifle must be purchased, transferred, and used in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.
