Can you please do a review of the new Winchester Xpert chambered in .22 LR

My CZ 457 MTR 20" shoots sub MOA at 100 meters with SK Rifle Match. Really happy with her.

Great rifles for the price

Nice .22. They’re nice in black

Got it & love it. topped with an Alpex & using eley subs.

Thanks for the review. I'm so impressed, I bought one (with a great deal from Gunsport Trading, Bairnsdale btw!) Just waiting for Vic. Pol. issue the permit. Unboxing at the dealer, I could not believe how well balanced the gun is.

I have the stainless with digital cammo stock. The factory trigger is perfectly fine, I adjusted out the creep and love it.

I have 457 American walnut, butiful rifle. Another bonus is they have the caliber change barrel kits, places where you can only have a set number of guns you can have this in 17hmr,22mag or 22lr all from the one rifle. Thanks Oz

No worries, I personally prefer 3 seperate rifles 😉

I have the 16” version of the CZ 457 on lay-buy currently. The 457 action reminds me of my first rifle a Slazenger Model 10 (Lithgow) I think the safety was an identical setup. The CZ to be my walk around plinker/hunter or slowly modified to be a paper puncher.

Wow! Unbelievable results.The rifle is great, but also your skills. Look at those groups.

For the $- it’s hard to beat Savage. I own 3 rifles from Savage- all shoot very well. I bought my wife a thumbhole heavy barrel target rifle for 22 matches and it runs with rifles from Germany and Sweden that cost much much more. Another great review- keep up the good work!

Shall do mate

The original trigger can be lightened by removing (very carefully) about half a turn (no more!) from the small spring that determines the release weight. It helps if you have a grinder, but hold the spring with a nail through the center because if it flies away you may never see it again. Secondly, if you can buy a package of rifle, .22LR, .17HMR and .22WMR barrels you will have 3 excellent rifles that in SA at least can be registered as one firearm. nail

My WMR is this rifle is lights out

Bought my daughter one with a 16 inch barrel. We are yet to zero it. I hope the barrel length isn't too short. Cheers for the review Ozzie.

Yes correct

Hi Ozzie, would you recommend this rifle/stock configuration for younger shooters?

Have you found accuracy of this rifle to be sensitive to the torque of the stock screws and, if so, what torque weight have you settled on? Same question for the beechwood 22lr. I have one of the latter and I found it very sensitive to screw tension, largely, I think, due to the oversize cavity of the stock inletting and the poor support of the polymer pillars (the rear one was not in contact with the tang which was solely bearing on the recoil lug). I felt the problem was that the metal had insufficient contact to evenly and consistently settle on; even so I was getting some very good groups, and some appalling ones, with various light tensions but accuracy was not maintained. I gave up experimenting with different tensions on the screws (I don't yet have a torque wrench) and bedded it with devcon to increase the area of support. This was fiddly though I managed to increase the bearing surface quite considerably taking 2 goes but it has been successful. I wonder if you might have had a similar experience? I think my 457 is a very interesting rifle when it's shooting accurately as it is utterly reliable in operation and very precisely made and designed except for the bedding. SK standard and Eley HVHP are two of the most accurate in it along with SK pistol special; but it won't shoot CCI standard or Eley club worth a damn. Excuse the long rant. I appreciate your good work and offer my best regards.

Hi Ozzie Can you please review the Chimera .223 button-release rifle.

Nice review Ozzie! Here's a question... which do you prefer, the CZ "457 Synthetic" or the Lithgow LA101 in 22LR? I know the Lithgow retails about $500 more, so is it comparing apples and oranges?

@bradleybradley8144

6 ай бұрын

I ummed and ahhed between the two for a while. Ended up being able to trial both and went for the CZ. Price wasn’t a factor, I genuinely preferred it. Very, very smooth action. Had it a year now and absolutely love it still. Hope that helps.

Hi Ozzie, I’m one of your newest subscribers and I love the videos mate. I’m looking to start competing in the PR22 rimfire production class. The rules state that the rifle has to retail for no more than $1000 and the optics at no more than $500. I was hoping you could recommend a competitive setup within that price range? Cheers, Simon.

Thanks for the review Ozzie. Those CZs certainly perform for not a lot of money. I like the switch barrel feature. Hopefully we West Australians won’t have to take advantage of that.

None of us will have to worry about that if we all stand together, push back against restrictions, vote as one make make change happen 👍

Can you review the Templeton T2000 mate.

Which scope you use?

what are the scope rings?

Does the scope have to be removed to be able to change the barrel? It will be interesting to see how the soft-touch stock goes in the hot Australian climate over the years. Other brands have gone sticky.

@tonycanniffe2360

No need to remove the scope. Gun blue channel shows how to change the barrel. So does the CZ channel- although they don’t have a scope fitted whereas Gun blue does.

This was my first thought. That soft touch stuff doesn't do well in the hot weather over the longer term. I'd most likely go for a wood finish.

I've heard the 16" varmint might even be a little more accurate due to the weight and less barrel vibration (certainly nothing to suggest less accurate anyway).
