CZ 452 Varmint 17 HMR
My First experience with 17 HMR was not very pleasant. My need for a walking Varminter of some sort started a couple years earlier while on a hunt in Casper, Wyoming. We were in Prairie Dog hunting Heaven. We shot all day and shot thousands of rounds. But the most fun of that trip was walking around finding the little patches of them . Now at that time all I had to walk around was My Custom ASA 20 inch AR-15. Heavy, bulky, and obsolete are some of the words I could use to describe it. So Later that year I caved into the hype and purchased a Marlin 917V, though not thoroughly impressed by its actual performance in the field I chose to sell it off and opt for a 22 mag. After Building up a nice collection of varmint rifles I built up a nice collection of rimfires but something was missing, A 17HMR
So I started talking around, posting question on forums trying to find out the best one. The awnser came very plain and simple and by just about all I talked to, The CZ. I found the one I was looking for at the Local Sportmans Warehouse and I was off and running
Once I got it home I looked it over. WOW what nice looking rifle. Nice balance too. This will make a nice walking varminter. Then I installed a BSA Sweet 17 3-12. Nice looking scope has great eye relief and a good field of view even at the maximum power. I headed for the mountains and now it was time to work this rifle over. The magazine was very easy to remove put rounds in the magazine and reinstall it. Cycling the bolt was breeze. the Bolt is smooth as I could have ever imagined and locked up solid. I fired a couple rounds and wow what a trigger this cant be a factory trigger. Once I got it sighted in. That was all she wrote. I am sold on the 17HMR again.
The Cz 452 Varmint has a beautiful stock and it is well balanced. It has a smooth functioning magazine and magazine release. The bolt is as smooth as any other rimfire out there and better than most. The trigger is awesome, and accuracy , How about 10 shots in 1/2 inch at 100 yds..I highly recommend this rifle
Thanks CZ
