CZ 557 Sporter Rifle

Review of CZ 557 Sporter Rifle.

[@thehackofalltrades1630]

Great Video - I Appreciate the work you put into these

[@harrisontaylor9547]

I just brought home this rifle today, my first hunting rifle I have ever owned, I’m looking forward heading down to the range! Thank you for the detailed review, it helped me make the decision to purchase! Cheers

[@dragonwarrior3796]

Same here, I have the eclipse model though. First rifle and can't wait

[@Mustafa-dm5co]

Please let us know what do you think about it

[@tylorrose6260]

I'm thinking of getting one to. The only thing stopping me is thinking of the weight of the firearm

[@harrisontaylor9547]

@@tylorrose6260 It is a heavy gun to lump around, I do pack it on the quad most of the time so it’s not so bad if you don’t have to carry it around all the time, however the build quality to this firearm is second to none, it’s extremely accurate, I have a Vortex scope mounted presently.

I really appreciate straightforward and simple videos. I just bought a used CZ 557 and couldn't figure out how to remove the bolt and that little lever is hidden! Thanks for demonstrating. This is a beautiful gun now no longer made as they have the CZ 600 which is super cool too. 🙂

[@snoozer987]

I would have appreciated, some information, on the bolt's extractor and ejector system. But otherwise, a good review. Thank you.

[@robertbrandywine]

Go to 7:25 of this video to see the extractor and ejector set up. It's pretty much as you would expect, a Sako or Win Model 70 push-feed type arrangement. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5LbooacfMmXgJI

[@DanDoroshDetroitMusic]

@@robertbrandywine Push feed is like a Remington 700 not a sako or Winchester. Those are controlled round feed rifles. Cz states this rifles has a new style of bolt drawing from both controlled round and push feed. This is probably why the guy who originally commented was interested in the bolt.

[@andrewb2111]

This same gun comes in a carbine version .. shorter barrel and factory iron sights. I love mine.

[@eugenegress5896]

This is what Tikka should have done; all metal, and flat bottom plate, HOWEVER, What would Have made the 557, a Near perfect Rifle, would to have made the Bolt Throw 70 degrees for bolt handle to scope clearance; Lower scope Mounting. You see these Wonderful CZ Rifles with High Ring mounted scopes,; Gap so wide you could throw a Frisbee through them. Come on CZ.....Lets make it near perfect.

[@rcruz003]

Just bought one in 270. Very impressed overall . cant wait to shoot it Good review ...Subscribed

[@davidkeith571]

Nice rifle and good review.

[@maverickgunworks8777]

Thank you and yes it is a nice rifle.

[@mpett2]

Bolt sounds like sand paper but it may be just the mic..Trigger seems light though.. wow

[@maverickgunworks8777]

Mic and operator. Hope to have better equipment soon. Thanks for watching our channel.

[@deplorablepatriot1214]

Great rifle. Love my CZ .308 sporter.

[@TheREALLibertyOrDeath]

Why does cz keep discontinuing models? The 452 and 550 were well loved and super accurate

[@thatguyoverthere9634]

Probably to open up manufacturing space for more popular/profitable/updated firearms

[@DaDaDo661]

The 457 is a big Improvement over the 452. The 557 kind of fell flat compared to the 550, but the new 600 series looks great

[@gascheck8151]

Good question..

[@randyschaff8939]

Beautiful

[@leeadams5941]

Just found this channel...agree about Wood stocks.. a great review, missing the 550 and looking for a replacement. I hunted coastal NC for many years and have to agree 200/250 yards is about the limit. But don't we have some great Bear hunting? Now if CZ would just come out with another control round feed.

[@wayne8276]

Mine is in 270 . So far so good .

[@maverickgunworks8777]

The more CZs I handle and shoot the more I love them. You have great taste.

[@mateomanteca1188]

I have the 557 sporter and I've always had issues with my bolt getting jammed. When fully extended you can feel quite a bit of wiggling. So, when I push it back it back in, it will rub and get jammed a little. Any experience with this or any ideas of how to fix?

[@311hitwall]

I think there are some design issues with this rifle based on other videos I have seen

[@SurmaSampo]

Lube with heavy lithium grease instead of light machine/gun oil. It will remove the sloppiness and allow the bolt to glide in the action.

[@brianlee6849]

I'm with you I prefer a traditional wood and blued steel. I'd like to have one of these in 25-06. Do you know if there is a good receiver aperture sight available for this 557? I prefer a quality aperture sight with click adjustable windage and elevation. Thanks 👍

[@jimmyphelps5103]

I just purchased a cz 557 in a 6.5 by 55 Swede but mines synthetic from what I've read and seen I have done wrong by getting it

[@MrWalkaboutding]

I purchased one in .243 , not a bad rifle but has the worst bolt release I have ever seen. I’ll sell it.

[@Gideom007]

“This is a push feed so it will control the cartridge” Huh?

[@calicojack556]

Like a Winchester Model 70. That's a good thing. More expensive bolt guns do that.

[@Gideom007]

@@calicojack556 the CZ 557 is a push, not a CRF like the Winchester 70. You both are confused.

[@DanDoroshDetroitMusic]

@@Gideom007 cz calls it a new style drawing from both push feed and Controlled round feed. Uses a short extractor and plunger extractor...

[@andykowalczyk5598]

So is it 5 round or 4+1 capacity? Or does it depends on the caliber?

[@kacsaringo5582]

Sorry for the non-subject matter, but what camera did you use for the review?

[@maverickgunworks8777]

We use Sony CX455 now but had a GoPro I think when this video was done. The GoPro made things look a little different. We like the Sony better.

[@westesh]

Is there any plastic on this gun? I've heard that the floor plate hinge release is plastic? Thanks!

[@raithjames860]

This is a push feed. It does not have control round feed. Made a boo boo there.

[@gascheck8151]

Are the action bolt heads hex metric??

[@josipcro]

Can anyone tel me if Cz557 30-06 can fit i Cz557 308 stock??
