Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires School me on the CZ452

I think they are bssically the same gun as the Ultra Lux with the 28" barrel.
The only difference is the barrel markings and the 12 groove rifling.

I only adjusted the stock trigger. Don't know if the Yo Dave parts are available here in Canada due to restrictions on stuff coming out of the US. Haven't tried real high priced ammo, just used the same various types previously used in my Browning which shot so well.

Jim,
Have you tried any Wolf Target kr SK Jagd Standard Plus?
What model of 452 do you have?

No. Am not sure if this is available around here. I can't remember ever seeing any of that.

The receiver is marked CZ 2E ZKM

What is the mgf date? That would be the two digit number usually at the breech on the left.

I just googled and can't find an address. You might Email the Yo-dave folks and find out but I was thinking it came from Canada. Seems like the kit cost me $20 and well worth it. Lots of info at www.rimfirecentral.com in the CZ forum. Don't give up on it though .I have a 1416 Annie that will shoot 3/4" to 1" 50 yard 5 shot groups with some HV ammo but one hole just barely larger than a .22 bullet hole with the high priced Eley it likes.

Yep,I just looked again at the Yo-Dave site in the shipping section and they say they air mail every day out of Canada.

As stated I used the Yo Dave kit and installed it myself.

FWIW my gun is a 17 HMR. I think .22 LR match ammo is generally more accurate than any available 17 HMR. I really wish that Eley or RWS or Lapua would make 17 HMR. I also wish we could get moly coated bullets for the 17HMR. The jacketed bullets available make cleaning a lot more difficult than good .22's. Cleaning for moly is a snap compared to jacketed bullets and, in my experience, if done right, works better.

My 452 doesn't have a two digit number on the left or the right.

Matter of fact the only numbers on it are the serial #......

Bullschit.

You need to look on the barrel then.

They used to have a two digit year code on both the barrel and the reciever at breech end on the left side.

I notuced on my 2016 made 452 American the "16" is on the RIght side of the barrel shank along with the proof marks.. Try looking there.

Found it. It says "16" which makes since because I bought it last Dec.
When I looked at it last night I thought it was just another proof mark due to poor lighting and even poorer eye sight.

Ditto.........you will not beat them for the price paid, I have an early production 452 Trainer right now that shoots really well, best one I have ever owned. I have owned over 20 CZ 452's and only had one that wasn't as accurate as it should be.

Sorry for late reply, I've been away. My gun doesn't have any numbers of the type mentioned. I purchased the gun as new about 4 years ago. That is the closest I can come to aging it.

Don't matter. Try the Yo-dave for a great trigger and try some quality ammo. If it still won't group well,check scope and mounts. If it is the gun,sell it and try another 452. It's not the platform that's bad.
