[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2137008, member: 115658"] I also have a CZ457 - great, like right out of the box. My rifle likes Federal TNT's. Green target 50 yards, red target 100 (5-7 mph breeze). Both targets shot with same scope adjustments. Scope is an ancient Weaver 6-20X40 Grand Slam. I really can't tell much about the wood quality because there is so much heavy semi-opaque stain and finish applied. I'm planning to get lower scope rings so I can remove the camo comb riser from the stock. I wish the receiver was drilled & tapped for 6-48's so I could use Burris 1' Signature Zee rings. Warne rings now. Great trigger & handles well. Don't think a heavy barrel would improve things much. Just guessing, a 20" barrel might be optimum for the .17 HMR. Groups sort have similar shapes. Bullet drops about 8 inches at 200. Perfect gopher gun for near farm house & barn. [ATTACH alt="IMG_1440.JPG"]257345[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="IMG_1441.JPG"]257346[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
