Looks like CZ sells them for $179.

I found a new threaded .22 lr standard barrel at a gun dealer today for $100. I am thinking this barrel could be used to replace a standard .22lr, a .22 mag, or maybe a .17 hmr barrel. I think you could have 1 stock and use any of the 3 barrels - is this correct?

Not just the stock, but the receiver and bolt as well.

The 455 and 457 barrels are interchangeable. 457 barrels are nitrided, which protects both the outside and the inside, a really good feature. Besides the barrel, you need the proper magazine and when going from .17 HMR or .22 WMR to .22 LR, you need the filler block and retaining pin for the magazine housing. When you buy an accessory barrel made by CZ, it comes with a magazine and IIRC the filler if needed, plus an Allen key and torx key. Those will do for the initial tightening, but a torque driver is recommended for the barrel screws.

There are also single-shot blocks that take the place of a .22 LR magazine, if that’s something of interest.
Ebay sellers make 3D printed versions too, for both sizes of magazines.

Had an issue with misfires in my first range session with my new .22 mag barrel. Striker marks were definitely light. Decided to start with the easy stuff, so rather than pull the barrel and reinstall, I did some searching around and found some stories about how cleaning out the channel the striker rides in fixed misfire issues. Bingo! Second trip yesterday was misfire-free, and accuracy was better as well. I’d also run some tight wet patches into the chamber in case there was preservative etc. lurking in there. Wasn’t really much crud in the bolt, but whatever works, works.

Now this one joins the turkey gun lineup, with of all things, Maxi Mags, which shot as well as anything else and should be less ‘splody than the fast tipped bullets. Those shot well too but about 1 1/2” inch higher, but the same windage-wise.
