CZ 457 AMERICAN BEECH, .22LR, 20" 1/2X20

The CZ 457 American Beech is a refined, classic American-style rimfire rifle. Featuring a 20” barrel with no sights, it’s designed to be paired with a scope for precision shooting. The rifle is equipped with a Turkish walnut stock that boasts a high, flat comb and a traditional checkering pattern for both aesthetic appeal and functionality. True to CZ's commitment to quality, the 457 includes an 11mm dovetail milled into the receiver for easy scope ringmount attachment.

One of the major updates in the CZ 457 is the inclusion of an American-style push-to-fire safety, a feature that was notably absent in earlier rimfire models. This addition, while significant, is just one of many improvements. The rifle’s action has been shortened by nearly an inch and given a slab-sided design, making it more compact and reducing overall weight.

CZ has also upgraded the rifle’s bottom metal, replacing the stamped design found in the 455 with a refined two-piece interlocking system for added durability and class. To enhance scope compatibility, the 457 now features a 60° bolt rotation, replacing the previous 90° rotation. This adjustment allows for larger ocular bell diameters and lower ring heights for better scope fitment. Additionally, the 457 comes equipped with a fully adjustable trigger, allowing users to fine-tune weight, creep, and over-travel for a more personalized shooting experience.

With the same swappable barrel system as the 455 and the proven polymer magazine system, the CZ 457 is undoubtedly the best rimfire platform CZ has ever produced.
