CZ 457 .22lr ammo

Post by Vone » 08 Jun 2020, 10:36 am

Hi all,

I'm new to this great world of shooting. Any ammo suggestions for a CZ 457 American .22lr used for range target shooting?

Cheers :thumbsup:

RWS R50 or Eley Club? Or are you looking for budget ammo?

Just something that shoots well with the CZ 457. Doesn't need to be budget.

An ammo comparison post here that might be helpful.

You'll need to try a few different kinds in your rifle though.

The results above won't necessarily be mirrored in yours.

Eley standard shoots quite nicely out of mine mate. The Eley HV 38gn also not to shabby.

Depends on if you are target shooting or bunny busting etc. As Weepy said,try various brands and bullet types. Have fun.

I’d recommend trying Eley standard. Only comes in a bulk 500 pack (ammo lose bulk pack) I think the other budget Eley in called Action now (green pack). I only have a 457 barrel at the moment and it seems to prefer Eley compared CCI standard as a budget option.

I am waiting on my CZ MTR 22lr to turn up. It will have the match chamber so might be a bit more ammo fussy.

I don't make a distinction in .22LR ammo, any of it is perfectly capable of taking small game, just use whatever your rifle is most accurate with.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll give Eley and RWS a go. Cheers
