The CZ 457 American Synthetic in .22 Long Rifle is a precision bolt-action rifle engineered for shooters who demand accuracy and reliability in a compact, practical platform. Built on CZ's proven 457 action, this rifle combines a 20-inch threaded barrel with a black synthetic stock, delivering consistent performance across training, small-game hunting, and competition shooting applications. The threaded 1/2x28 muzzle accepts industry-standard suppressors and rimfire muzzle devices, while the 11mm dovetail accommodates CZ's accessory ecosystem and third-party optic mounts.
The 20-inch barrel optimizes velocity and sight radius for the .22 LR cartridge while maintaining a lightweight, fieldable profile at 7.13 pounds. The bronze Cerakote finish provides corrosion resistance in variable conditions without adding significant weight. The 5-round magazine capacity balances quick target transitions with manageable logistics for range work and hunting. The 11mm dovetail rail system allows mounting of scopes, red dots, or iron sights without requiring gunsmith intervention, making the platform immediately adaptable to mission-specific configurations.
This rifle serves shooters across multiple disciplines: precision rifle competitors appreciate the tight action and barrel lock-up; hunters favor the compact handling and the ability to run suppressors for hearing protection; law enforcement and military trainers use the .22 platform for low-cost marksmanship sustainment and zeroing fundamentals. The synthetic stock resists weather damage and offers consistent performance across temperature extremes, making it suited for outdoor storage and transport.
The CZ 457 American platform has earned recognition among precision shooters for its mechanical accuracy and factory barrel quality. The threaded barrel and dovetail system eliminate the need for secondary purchases to mount optics or run noise suppressors, reducing total system cost and setup time. Bolt-action .22 rifles in this configuration remain foundational tools across civilian marksmanship, youth training, and professional firearms instruction programs.
