Cz 457 Varmint 22lr Wlnt 5rd

The CZ 457 Varmint in .22 LR is a precision rimfire rifle engineered for accuracy-demanding applications including target shooting, small-game hunting, and varmint control. Built on CZ's proven 457 platform, the Varmint variant features a heavy .866-inch cylindrical barrel that delivers superior harmonic stability and consistent performance across a broad spectrum of .22 LR loadings—from subsonic to high-velocity ammunition. The 5-round capacity makes this rifle ideal for shooters prioritizing accuracy over volume, whether at the bench or in the field.

The rifle's Turkish walnut stock is fitted with an American-style comb positioned for optic-ready ergonomics, allowing easy scope mounting and cheek weld consistency. The wide, flat forend provides a stable platform for sandbag or rest-based shooting, critical for group-size verification and load development. Laser-cut stippling on the grip and forend surfaces ensures secure handling in variable conditions. At 8.69 pounds, the CZ 457 Varmint achieves a balance between barrel mass—necessary for vibration control and heat dissipation during extended shooting sessions—and field portability.

This rifle serves precision-focused shooters, competitive rimfire competitors, and hunters pursuing accurate shot placement in small-game and varmint applications. The CZ 457 Varmint's design prioritizes repeatability and load compatibility, making it a natural choice for shooters transitioning from .22 target rifles to real-world hunting or those establishing a reliable platform for testing ammunition performance. The .22 LR caliber offers low recoil, minimal noise signature, and economical practice costs—factors that make dedicated accuracy work sustainable across seasons.
