The standard heavy-barreled version of the 457, the CZ 457 Varmint .17 HMR 20.5in 5rd Bolt-Action Rifle (02342) has a .866" cylindrical barrel. Not only does the heavy barrel make for good harmonics, it also allows the Varmint to perform well with a wide variety of rimfire loads, translating into an accurate platform for shooting targets or getting game.
The Turkish walnut stock has an American-style comb for use with a scope and a wide, flat forend that rides a sandbag well. In addition to the receiver-mounted, push-to-fire safety, they chopped almost an inch of length from the action and slab-sided it to reduce its footprint and weight. With the exact same swappable barrel system as the 455 and the same reliable polymer magazine system, the 457 is without a doubt the best rimfire platform they've ever fielded.
