Built upon CZ\u2019s renowned 457 platform, this rifle boasts a smooth bolt operation, ensuring reliable cycling and consistent shot-to-shot accuracy. Whether you\u2019re plinking at the range or taking aim at small game, the CZ 457 AT-ONE\u2019s dependable action provides the foundation for precise shooting.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Features &amp; Specs<\/h2>\n<p>One of the most notable features of the CZ 457 AT-ONE is its fully adjustable stock system. The Boyd\u2019s AT-ONE stock offers shooters the ability to customize various aspects of the rifle\u2019s ergonomics to suit their preferences and shooting style. This includes adjustments for length of pull, comb height, and even the angle of the grip. By tailoring the stock to fit their body and shooting position, shooters can achieve optimal comfort and control, resulting in improved accuracy and reduced fatigue during extended shooting sessions. The stock is crafted from high-quality laminated wood that looks great. \u00a0It also adds a little extra weight that helps increase stability while shooting. The rifle\u2019s robust stock can withstand the rigors of hunting or competition use while maintaining its performance and appearance.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to its adjustable stock, the CZ 457 AT-ONE features a heavy-profile barrel that delivers exceptional accuracy. Available in various calibers including .22 LR, .17 HMR and .22 WMR, this rifle is capable of delivering tight groupings at both short and long distances. Whether you\u2019re honing your marksmanship skills or pursuing small game, the CZ 457 AT-ONE\u2019s precision-engineered barrel ensures consistent performance and reliable shot placement.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"466\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-700x466.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-548354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-700x466.webp 700w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-150x100.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-696x464.webp 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-1068x712.webp 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-630x420.webp 630w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3-560x373.webp 560w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/457VarmintATONE-1-3.webp 1070w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>CZ 457 AT-ONE .22 LR Image courtesy of CSUSA<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Another benefit of the CZ 457 AT-ONE is its versatility. The rifle comes equipped with a 16.5-inch threaded barrel, allowing for the attachment of muzzle devices such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.silencershop.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">suppressors<\/a> or compensators. This versatility enables shooters to tailor the rifle to their specific needs and preferences, whether they\u2019re seeking a short small game hunting rig, a competition setup or a quieter plinking experience.<\/p>\n<p>The CZ 457 AT-ONE also features an adjustable trigger system, allowing shooters to fine-tune the trigger pull to their liking. Whether you prefer a light and crisp pull for precision shooting or a slightly heavier pull for added safety, the rifle\u2019s adjustable trigger ensures a consistent and predictable break shot after shot.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Range Time<\/h2>\n<p>I took the CZ 457 topped with a Bushnell Match Pro 6-24x50mm scope to the range on a clear 60-degree morning with virtually no wind. For ammo testing, I fired three different factory loads at 50 yards from a shooting rest and a rear pinch bag. From this, I calculated the average of five 5-shot groups for each load. \u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>SK Match 40-gr. Solid Point<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>First, I tested the SK Match 40-gr. soft point. It has shot well out of several other Savage rifles I\u2019ve tested. The ammo produced an average group size of 0.538, with the smallest group measuring in at .395.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rimfireaddiction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_8005-scaled.jpeg?resize=1200%2C900&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1608 lazyload\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rimfireaddiction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_8005-scaled.jpeg?resize=1200%2C900&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1608\"\/><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>SK Long Range Match 40-gr.\u00a0Solid Point<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Next up was SK Long Range Match 40-gr.\u00a0solid point ammo. SK\u00a0designed this round to stretch the .22 LR out to 100 yards and beyond. This round produced the best average group size at .535, and produced the smallest single group at .375.
