CZ 452 in .22 Mag..any experience?

I have had a couple dozen CZ 452's in all versions (Lux, FS, American and Varmint) and cartridges (.22 LR, .22 WMR, 17 HM2 and 17 HMR)... they were all accurate rifles... the single most accurate of the lot was a 452 Varmint in WMR... the idea that the WMR cartridge is inherently inaccurate has not been my experience in any brand and model I have shot it in... and these days, the ammunition is much better than what we were shooting four decades ago.
I have one. The first thing I had to do with it was open the barrel channel up a bit so the barrel wasn't touching and glass bed the action. Mine can also be fussy about the ammo it likes best.
Mine doesn't like the Winchester white box Dynapoints. It likes just about everything else and really shines with the CCI offerings. Especially the loads with the hollow point TNT bullets.
It's my go to Rocky Mountain Snowshoe Hare rifle out to 150 m.
I find it ergonomically correct for my mid frame stature. They do have stiff but crisp triggers that can be fixed with one of the kits available. Easy to mount a scope onto and once everything has settled down it has stayed settled down for the past ten years.
IMHO they're excellent rifles. Like every off the shelf rifle, you takes your chances. The best thing about these rifles is they respond positively to easy fixes.

You make me chuckle hc.
Bringing back a memory of a target of mine back in the era of age you type.
Five shots at 200 yards at the range down the coast.
Barnett's ring a bell to anyone?
Dad bought me the old Brno 21H in 8x57.
Five rounds tighter'n a twoonie I think.
Old Weaver 4x..........chit, I'd be lucky to make that at a'undrittit now.
