    I got one in .22.
    Overall a nice gun.shots fairly straight,after 50ish meters it spreads a bit.might be the bullets I'm using not shure.
    I had bit of a problem with reloading,it kept jamming the next bullet.wouldnt feed it straight into the barell.
    Done bit of polishing and hasn't missed once.
    Not saying don't get one but don't tink I'd buy one again

    I'd say it could be your ammo

    I have the CZ455 in .22LR and .17HMR, both with heavy varmint barrel, feeding ammo has never been an issue.

    50m with the .22LR i'd be hitting €2 coin size, most of the time, when I really put my mind to it.

    The .17HMR is a lot more accurate, both are really nice guys. Fitted YoDave springs to both of them as the triggers on CZs are heavy, very heavy. Have the thumbhole stock on the .17HMR which is sweet.

    What amo are you using?

    A mixture of ammo

    CCI Subsonic (40gr Hollow Point)
    CCI Standard Velocity (40gr Round Nose)
    CCI Velocitor (40gr Hollow Point)
    SK Standard Plus (40gr Round Nose)

    Guess the rifle just likes 40gr rounds :)

    Have you changed the trigger on your CZ455, I know it made a big difference to me,
    you don't realise how much you pull the rifle when pulling a heavy trigger.

    After reading your post yesterday I bought a yodave Spring kit. ..
    Will try 40gr rounds,hopefully the kit gets here quick.did find the pull bit heavy,when I bought it.taught I'd get used to it.maybe that's what's getting me of target.

    I was amazed with how much I was pulling the rifle when taking the shot but when you think about it pulling it off by 1-2mm could be inches at 50m+.

    Replacing the trigger spring takes about 15mins and the best thing you can do for very little money

    Hi lads I'm a cz 455 owner in . 22 and iv owned it for almost 3 years last week I decided to put in pillars and epoxy the action bed I had it out last night for its first shots and I have to say it's a different rifle massive difference in accuracy and consistent bullet placement iv yet to fit my yo dave trigger spring even with out the spring I'm getting ccI mini with in 1.5 inches of each other iv got the pictures but not the know how on uploading to boards if like me you really. Like the cz do what I done or get some one who can makes you love your 455 agen.
    Happy shooting

    Is your 455 have an evolution stock? I was looking to bed my 455 evo but with the short stock wasnt sure how to centre the barrel when bedding it

    No I think they call them the lux model cause of the fancy timber I think it's beech stock. I'd say if you YouTube your job you will find it.
