Thank you
I must say this is the first video of yours I I’ve seen. I’ve absolutely enjoyed it and you’ve done an incredible job being very thorough and detailed with your review. A pleasure to watch. Thank you!
Thank you. Please share it around and subscribe!
Thanks for sharing this with us. I get the impression that you’re quite pleased with this rifle...so far!😱
Hello Chris, signing in from South Africa here. I have been shooting competitively since I was 16, at school, in 1984. When I did my National Service, I stopped shooting 22, but I joined a club in Feb this year that shoots 22, and I took part with a Bruno, kindly loaned me by a club member, well, the rest is history.
Brilliant vid, and a good vindication for the rifle I finally settled on purchasing. Looking forward to other content from you.
Thank you so much for the Video Chris!!! Love it!!!😍
Going to start shooting .22lr next spring and this rifle is on the top of my list! Great shooting & thank you for reviewing this gun Chris!
Thanks for posting. I watched a few of your other video too. I just picked up a cz 457 LRP last Friday. Ran about 600 rds thru it so far but only out to 160yds. Really liking the little gun. Like the rubber coating on the stock. Lightened the trigger as far as i could. Nice and clean but still about 2.2 lbs. Might just do spring swap. I'm running a Leupold mark5 HD scope in mil/mil. I wish it had 1/20th mil turrets instead of 1/10th but I like the glass. Haven't played with the S/B glass yet. Also running a silencerco sparrow suppressor on mine. Most important part is I have to shoot Kentucky windage EVERDAY....Live in Independence Kentucky...LOL Thanks
I own the cz 457 american in a boyds at one stock topped with a Athlon Talos 3-12x40 and I absolutely LOVE it. It is without doubt my favorite in my collection.
This is one of the best rifle reviews I’ve watched. Real world use. Good pace. Thanks Chris
Lovely chassi. Clearly somebody has used experience and brains here.
Fantastic shooting as well sir!
Cracking review.glad I found your channel
I bought this today. My RPR is now a hand me down to my nephew.
You convinced me to buy one !! Fantastic review !
Great vid and obviously great rifle many thanks
Incredible and in depth review. Well done 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome review! I own the Cz 457 canadian edition and i love it alot! Sk trainer ammo is awesome!
✌🏼😎👍🏼
Thanks, try part two now as well
Concise review. I've been looking at this rifle and trying to make a decision. Thanks!
There are several more on that rifle
Excellent review looking forward to the second part
It's on now🤘🏻
My only criticism of this rifle is the comb riser. When raised as you demonstrate the bolt can’t be removed so that requires constant use of the T screwdriver. I carefully removed a portion on the front and can now leave the riser in situ and still remove the bolt, why oh why didn’t Cz do this?
I've just purchased a LRP on the strength of this review. Hope I can shoot it as well as you can.
Great video, still looking for one of these, everyone is out of stock in the US
Excellent review! I bought this fantastic rifle 6 months ago and it has been the best decision I ever made. Actually, all shooting ranges are closed due to f*****g pandemic,
but with A-TEC silencer, I can shoot in the backyard with RWS subsonic ammo up to 300 meters. Rifle is able to make
Ich habe das Prachtstück bisher auch nur wenige Male schießen können, möchte aber jetzt langsam aber sicher anfangen mich mit ihm anzufreunden und anschließend auf Wettkämpfe gehen :)
@@TerraFussel Actually, i'm running a big Vortex Scope and this beast is really getting funny.
@@diegutendingeaufwachen5636 I've got also a Vortex on it - 3-12x54. I just have to controll my heartbeat, since the rifle's always jumping a little bit :/
Quel est le modèle A- TEC que vous utilisez?
Got to love rimfires... 👍great review... what’s the rrp..
Chris, you did such a wonderful job reviewing the CZ 457 long range precision...have you had a chance to look at the Vudoo?
I would love to see a comparison of the two.
No, no uk importer of significance yet
My favourite rd. since a little boy. The most used most useful calibre ever invented. .22 lr
I view it as a 50 yd. varmint and pest rd.
As for accuracy. All you can do is try different brands until you find what your rifle likes best. Do Not clean the barrel lol 😂
Terrific review, mate!
Thank you. There is a part 2 and more on this rifle as well
@@chrisparkin431 I am watching it now!!
CZ have the rep for being agricultural, but I've always found them to be very accurate rifles, true workhorses.
They sure are good lookin' now. My 457 American has a gorgeous piece of wood, It's my midget model 70
Accurate as hell, BTW with SK Match.
@williamkoppos7039 Yeah, they make some fine looking little rifles and are accurate. I got a Varmit Precision chassis model as a trainer for my Christensen MPR 6.5 cm. I liked it so well I bought another in the Precision Match with Manners stock. Love the fact it was made to receive the Arca rail without drilling the stock. Ive suppressed mine as well with a D. Air Mask. It shoots ragged single holes at 60 yds all day and the data on Strelok Pro at 300 yds is almost identical to the data of my 6.5 cm at 1000, so it makes for a great trainer rifle. I've been shooting Wolf Match Extra, as they're made by Eley, in an Eley case, but a fraction of the price.
If I've heard correct, Eley swaps dies every year and the old dies go on the Wolf line, but they are still precision for sure.
Hello and thanks for your review.
Is your bipod a cadwell ?
I have a Harris on my 457 synthétique but can’t mount it at the front stud as the second is touching the swivel knob
hi excellent video. i'm trying to decide between the lrp .22lr and the cz 457 stainless steel barrel synthetic stock. please let me know if lrp is considerably accurate 100yards. Its mainly for hunting small game. thanks
Think I need one of these in my life
Just put one on lay-by today
Great video👍🏻 Can you do a review on the long barrel Jaguar model? Best regards from Denmark.
sadly unlikely, nobody in the UK is ever likely to buy one
Excellent review. Cant wait for part 2.
If this review doesnt sell the gun nothing will!
Thanks for the compliment, if you watch part two you might find out even more, there was a slight mistake in part one, that part two will show you just how convinced I was by this Rifle!
I didn’t notice any mistake. That how good it was! 😂
I hope to get mine soon... counting the days. 👍
@@ice061978 at one point i said 24" barrel not 20😉
👍
If you have an LRP or plan on getting one and you want to purchase a 10 round magazine, stay away from the metal magazine and stick to the plastic one. My metal 10 round mag prohibits the last empty shell from ejecting when pulling back on the bolt. The last brass usually lays on top of the magazine. My LRP likes 40gr BBM ammo. Lastly, if you CCI stingers, they will not fit in the LRP's chamber.
What is the shortest L.O.P. the butt can be adjusted to? Thanks for your time
@@danielbanting7557 Unfortunately, I sold mine a few weeks ago, so I cannot measure it for you. However, online information states that it's about 13.8".
Chris, can you tell us how to install the rubber butt extensions on the lrp?
Great review, but I can't find anything in the owners manual. Thanks!
Wasn't it just two screws through the recoil pad? I don't have it handy at present
The Best .22lr
thanks for the great video.
what is the scope youre using? i didnt understand it good in the video.
Thanks.
Probably a Schmidt & Bender PMII 5-25x56
Hi there, can you remember if the LRP is pillar bedded or not?
hi, great review. Thank you. What silencer did you use?
SAK
Hi Chris, on this rifle which optics do you recommend for use at 200 meters?
I have a grey LRP and I want to buy just the chassis but in black I use sk plus ammo so there’s starting to get oil stains all over the chassis and I like the black look can anyone send me a link or the part number?
I like my 457 AT-1 so much that I am considering putting a match barrel on it (MTR). I am concerned that my 24” stock barrel will be giving up 4” on the MTR. Do you think I will see accuracy increase with the MTR?
No
Verygood
Okay 👌
Does the extra £300 justify the LRP over the MTR? Is the difference between the two models down to the stock, lightened trigger pull, picatinny rail and fluting to the same barrel?
That's for you to decide comparing the specifications to what you need. personally the MTR is a bit outdated in comparison
what do you think. What optics will be appropriate for this rifle? not very expensive.
Haweke Sidewinder 30 FFP would be a good economical starting point
Yeah so now I want one lol
Can you address the piller bedding of the 457 lrp.
Thanks!
It isn't pillar bedded
I don't get it: Why does Chris Parkin shoot ammunition that has a muzzle velocity just above the speed of sound (Mach 1)?
1089 f/s probably corresponds to approx. Mach 1.03 at sea level and 20 degrees Celsius?
I intend to buy a 22LR rifle, and would like one that has a 16 inch barrel, since I will also probably use a small silencer.
I've read that with a 16 inch barrel, the muzzle velocity of standard ammo will be slightly above Mach 1.
But according to my local gun shop, the same rifle with a 20 inch barrel is more accurate, because the longer barrel slows the bullet on standard ammo down to say Mach 0.95.
And that contributes to better precision because then the bullet is UNDER Mach 1 from the muzzle to the target.
To avoid turbulence when a bullet goes through the transonic speed range, the bullet from muzzle to target should either be all the way BELOW Mach 1, or ABOVE Mach 1.
Why is Chris Parkin shooting 22LR ammo that has a muzzle velocity just above Mach 1?
On the way to the target, the bullet will go through tranonic speed, and will be exposed to unnecessary turbulence, which will affect precision negatively.
Is he not aware of this, or am I misunderstanding something?
You might want to check your figures there
What supressor you use?
I'm currently trying to decide what variant of the 457 to buy
It's all about which stock suits your needs from the rifle
Quá đẹp . 1 siêu phẩm
👍👍,,..
Aren't the receivers and bolts in the CZ457 range identical? This would mean the only difference is the grade of barrel you choose to use. Is this right? I have tried to do some research on this topic but no info turns up.
Watching my videos should be pretty clear research
@Chris Parkin Shooting Sports would I be able to achieve similar results if I swap out the barrel on my CZ457 premium model?
Hello ! Can someone give me the model of the schmidt & bender scope ? Thanks ! JC
It's a 5-25x56 PMII
You say the barrel is 24”. I only find one with a 20” barrel? And, is this model already discontinued?
I make a note of my error on the video. This is a very NEW model
@@chrisparkin431 So, there is a new variant with a 24” barrel??
@@jamesdietz6899 this is it, 20" barrel
looking to buy this gun for competition out to 500 yards is this achievable ?
It is bit you need to get creative with your optical elevation solution
Hi Chris , could you please tell which model of scope that is ?
Schmidt & Bender 5-25x56 PMII
So which is better this CZ or Bergara B14?
This one
Why was this awesome rifle discontinued by CZ?
Have they? Or just changed the stock colour!
@@chrisparkin431 Per CZ's own website, it was discontinued in 2021.
@@jimhovater8755 they were on display at Iwa 2022, now with a black stock
What scope and rings are you using?
Watch the video, it tells you
Good review, but I don't think you should throw brass into the field where animals are grassing...
hence why I pick it up after I have finished?
Between this and a Ruger 10/22 Competition?
They are Totally different guns from start to finish
@@chrisparkin431 and even though how would you rank them?
what about the price how much now nowadays can anyone update pls?
I don't sell them, prices change so best to ask your local dealer
Spend your money on the rifle, not the ammunition. I shoot a chassis 457, and mine likes Eley and SK. Welcome to our sport.
How does it compare to a T1X?
Better trigger, better scope mounting, nicer looks and barrel, more versatile stock ergonomics, reliable mag system. The T1X has no real relevant market competitor in a similar stock/heavy barrel layout to this, just a light, short length of pull sporter
@@chrisparkin431 i allready have a T1x as a trainer for my T3x but damn that cz looks good,,,
Does the rifle only come in 22lr ?
Yep
You can get extra barrels
What model of S&B scope is he using?
5-25x56 PMII
I just can't get over people saying c zed. Wtf it's annoying
I also say tomato and potato🤘🏻
Lots of trigger creep, typical CZ
More shooting less talk.
