Tried many different brands of target and match ammo. Do most CZ fans prefer the 452 to the 455? My experience with a so so 455 could be an isolated event.


I had a 452 Varmint in 22 Magnum. I replaced it with a 455 Lux in 22 Magnum. The 455 is just as accurate as the 452 I had, plus it's lighter and the stock fits me better. I know it is only a sample of one each, but I would try a 455 again.
