Title: Accuracy
Post by: weemsf on May 21, 2016, 09:55:01 AM
Do you 455 owners find them to be as accurate as the 452's?

Yes...

...when tuned well.

I didn't own a torque driver that measured inch pounds prior to owning a 455.  But my dialed in 455's out shoot my dialed in 452's.  But thats only a couple of each, so  not a solid statistical sample.

Out of the the box......NO.

After some tweaking and tuning......maybe.

To me, the biggest key to any CZ rifle, is finding out what ammo it likes best.

I would agree with Viking.....ammo is the biggest variable by a wide margin.  Next is my breathing!

I don't own a 452 so can't make a direct comparison. I do, however, own a .22LR 455 Trainer with a 3-9x32mm scope zeroed at 50 yds. I've checked it at 100 yds off a front sandbag using Remington Thunderbolt 40 gr LRN with wind blowing left-to-right. Since many "experts" claim this is terrible ammo (it's on the Internet so it must be true, right?  ::)), my limited results (only a few shots due to time constraints) would indicate that a 455 straight out of the box is pretty darn good - 2 MOA. The hits are low and right as one would expect for the range at which the scope is zeroed and the wind direction.
