In this video we take the CZ 457 Varmint MTR rifle I personally use for PRS22 competition. We show accuracy out at 50 yards on paper with SK Biathlon sport Target Ammunition and talk about the rifle based on my personal experience. We shoot the SK Biathlon Sport in our 50 yard stock match ammo test with a stock CZ 457 MTR.
Benefits to the 457 MTR over a traditional 457 rifle is the Turkish walnut stock with plastic pillars as well as the very accurate match chamber barrel.

You're doing a great service for the .22lr community and I very much appreciate it! Where I live, the PNW, I have to get it wherever I can find it and not worry about it, which does not find me in my "happy place" as often as before this c19 B.S. I don't shoot much target ammo, mostly hunting grade ammo, but I would shoot more target if it were readily available. My big plan when I bought my CZ MTR was to set it up for shooting ground squirrels and other pests and long distance field shooting for fun and to keep in reasonable shooting form. Being educated by your tests and knowing what ammo is likely to shoot well in my MTR is a great advantage and will save me money when I'm shopping around for target ammo, THANKS!

Shot RWS TARGET RIFLE today from my CZ 457 MTR. Sorted by weight. It made a slight difference. Might try sorting by rim thickness for fun as well next time! Makes a difference with the cheaper ammo, probably not so much at the top end as that is all the manufacture does in keeping higher tolerance and charges more! Consistency that’s all it is. I know you did a video on sorting…..off topic a little! Please do a RWS TARGET RIFLE video to add to your top 11. Thanks!

@3:00 I understand there are bad-apples (cheaperthandirt for instance) but most are just following normal supply and demand practices. A normal seller in a normal market does not just sell the product at purchase price + markup. The seller has to replenish the stock at the current wholesale price if it's higher he charges more for current stock with an eye on the cost of getting more stock. In the ammo world the average retailer does not sit on inventory. It's always moving in and out so he has to charge a price that allows him to bring in the next batch. The same is true of commodities like gas. The gas does not sit on the location long. It has to be purchased from the wholesale market every week or day depending on demand.
@PursuitofAccuracy 2 жыл бұрын
Having worked with both of the major ammo suppliers for match ammo you can be assured they are not increasing pricing to the retailers. They are increasing prices due to limited quantities. There are several select retailers still selling ammo at reasonable prices.

Hey Buddy Nice shooting Mate that ammo looks to be very accurate I shoot only SK high velocity match after trying just about every thing else through my CZ455 varmit , 20 inch l would give biathlon a try but it’s not available over here , what are your thoughts on high velocity ammo v subsonic at 50 yards it’s got me confused why my rifle will only shoot the high velocity stuff accurately at 50 which contradicts everything that I have read and been told , it would make an interesting video to see the difference in accuracy between high and subsonic ammo through your rifle I would love to see that and I’m sure a lot of your supporters would also please give it a try . Steve from Australia .
@PursuitofAccuracy 2 жыл бұрын
Sk high velocity will be my next ammo test. At 50 hv or subsonic wont make a difference. The hv falls apart further down range as it transitions from super sonic to sub sonic.
