CZ 457 Thumbhole Laminate 17 HMR Review by Chris Parkin

For more than 70 years, we have been the world's leading company in the development and production of long firearms with ammunition with edge fire. Each of our model lines was one of the best on the market at the time. However, none has yet brought such a great improvement in all key user parameters as the CZ 457 family.
CZ now introduce the 457 series. In this independent review Chris Parkin talks CZ 457 Thumbhole

Brill as always, had my Synthetic for three months now, after about a thousand rounds it is shooting really consistently. Mainly using Norma subs ( and not one dud round ) By far the best choice for pesting imo. Fun target as well, hitting a six inch steel at 150 yards.

[@FIAF.22LR]

Great reviews as always. I often pick up useful shooting tips as well.The 457 series are a very good rifle.Thank you.

[@jhann990]

Great stuff. I think your real-world condition reviews are much more useful, esp when thinking about what to get.

[@dansummers5400]

Thanks Chris, another great review and honest opinions, this one is on my list to purchase in January, cannot wait to get my hands on it and play!

[@louisbartlett7880]

They are brilliant

[@kingofthewoods9763]

Many thanks Chris have happy new year 🥳

[@bryanmackey1690]

Good shooting! I just put one of these in 22lr on layaway. Absolutely beautiful looking rifle! I’m really looking forward to picking mine up in about 4 weeks.

[@geoffreyraleigh1674]

Lovely looking gun cheers for the review.

[@ykdickybill]

I had a CZ 453 Varmint in 17 hmr and it would group your thumbnail reliably at 100yds as long as conditions were still. That was with Hornady 17g vmax.

[@bugler6447]

Do some reviews on the 17 WSM as it is some much better then the 17 HMR.

[@andyp5296]

Thank you Chris a helpful review as always. Can you give us an estimate of your real world group sizes at 100 metres please? As a mediocre shooter I am getting about 1.5 inch ten shot groups at that distance with 17 GR Federal V Max ammunition. Thank you.

[@louisbartlett7880]

Great review. I have the 457 17hmr and it is an amazing round but I’m not sure weather it’s the moderator or not but yours seems to be louder

[@jameshingle6210]

It’s a shame you didn’t use the Federal 17gr ammo, I have the same rifle and although mine groups ok with Hornady, I found the federal store be best 😊 great video though

[@jameshingle6210]

Also, I’m glad it’s not just mine that hates Winchester ammo, I was getting hang fires or dead man’s click atleast one in every 10 rounds

[@Crt5]

My 457 also likes the federal black tip. I shot some cci A17 today and had some good results with that too.

[@jameshingle6210]

@@Crt5 that’s good to know, I have some CCI 17 and 20gr game point but haven’t had chance to try them yet so may have to give them a go

[@bobhamulak3646]

I'd like to see you do a comparison between the CZ 457 (in .17 HMR), and the Anschutz 1517. Please! Good video! Nice rifle!

[@MarceloJouCRA]

Great consistency.

[@kevsmu]

Fantastic review as always mate ! Love this rifle and hope to own one

[@aston108]

Chris, I have one of these waiting for me at sportsman's when my licence arrives. Could I still use this for 25 yard freehold target shooting ? I love the look of this rifle.

[@shaved1999]

I've had lot of issues with wincher ammo also.

[@arkontra]

Excelente, saludos desde México

[@bobbythompson3544]

150 yards is my crow kill distance, so satisfying, Hornady 17 grain, love this calibre!

[@jaywhitney789]

Love the CZ Brand, when we were over in the Czech Republic i shot the scorpion and the 750 😎🔫

[@Joe-qi9zp]

How would you say it compares against an Anschutz 1517 Chris?

[@bobhamulak3646]

Yeah, I'd like to see that comparison too! I love my CZ 457's one in .22 WMR and my two .22 LR's, and I'd consider a 457 in .17 HMR, but I already own an Anschutz 1517 and I would like to know how the CZ stacks up to the Anschutz. I enjoy all your videos Chris! Keep up the good work!

[@olliepearce1005]

Be good to see scope cam

[@Shinnosuke02]

[@ivandogshit7880]

[@georgekasza7295]

Glass bed the rifle, and they will tighten up the groups. Dandy shooting. Thanks.

[@bobhamulak3646]

I agree! Bedding will help. That, and cleaning the bore.

[@stevenlord782]

Glass bed the rifle!!!! What century are we in 😂😂😂😂

[@georgekasza7295]

@Steven Lord I glass bed all my rifles, and it works for me,it helps with flyers. Or you can buy a thousand dollar McMillan stock. Just saying.
