CZ 457 chassis options

[chootem]

I'd like to hear from anyone as to their likes/dislikes on the various options out there. For center fire I've owned MDT ACC and KRG Bravo and thinking that may be the way I need to go. My new 457 came in a Boyd's Pro Varmint and I need more LOP and don't care for the rigging I have to do to get a proper cheek weld....do miss the vertical grip as well.

Just want to make sure I have not missed any new options out there in the chassis world..thanks.

I have my son's in an XLR Element and it's been solid for many years. And with the adjustability of it, it's stayed with him since he was pretty young and small to where he's in college and taller than me now.

The top end chassis don’t make sense unless you are going for deep dive to upgrade your CZ457 with custom barrel ($800) and trigger.

If you are not going full custom then take a hard look at MDT XRS chassis. It is adjustable and robust. I like it a lot better than the KRG chassis.

I prefer the ACC Gen 1 and I’ve got a couple of them, but the XRS is solid and I have one of those too. I was excited about the vanquish till I found out it would only work with the factory plastic CZ 10-rnd mag. I like the L3i 13 rounders. I see more used chassis come up for sale in the 700 footprint. I bought my second ACC on a Black Friday sale from MDT a couple years back at considerable savings.

I have got the XRS chassis with my CZ457/Lilja barrel. A very solid combination.

MDT ACC premier gen 2

It’s not at the top-top for features but it’s miles ahead of the Tupperware hybrid stuff that flexes. If you’re a bench shooter from a rest just touching the trigger a flexible stock will work. If you load a bipod, have much cheek weld, no. I could make a bravo shift poi by handing it different. Get what you pay for!!!

Will you be selling the pro varmint stock?

Yes when I get the Bravo/MDT I'll be letting it go. I did drill the front sling studs for 10-32/t-nuts from a Salmon River 4" ARCA rail kit which would come with it.

I like the XRS chassis myself, good value for the dollars.

I set my wife up a CZ457 for a long gong rifle in an MDT XRS stock.


I've swapped out the Bushnell DMR scope with a DNT The One 7-35x56mm scope and I added an Adjustable Bag Rider.

This is what I did

My 457 does double duty as a long range match rifle and also my NV equipped rimfire for pest control. I went with an MDT LSS chassis as it is light enough to carry around the paddock at night shooting pests and then I swap the scope over to my day scope, fit the accu-tac bipod and go shoot a long range match. Fitting MDTs vertical adjustable butt pad made a big difference for prone shooting. Rifle returns to zero very close using NF ultralight rings on both scopes and the 68 in/lb Fixit Sticks torque driver.

I went a more budgetish route on my 457s geared more as walking rifles, have a rimx setup towards target/comp.

Being lefty slimmed my choices down a bit as well. Thinking about changing the rear stock on the .17 for an xray, match my centerfire w3's

Fwiw my 457's see way, way more time out of safe than the RimX.
