CZ 457 American LH .22 WMR Bolt-Action Rifle, 24.8″ Barrel

Product Description

The CZ 457 American LH is a left-handed .22 WMR bolt-action rifle with a 24.8″ cold hammer forged barrel. The barrel has a 1:16″ twist. The action is built for left-handed operation, so the bolt and safety sit where a left-handed shooter expects them.

The stock is Turkish walnut, paired with a black finish. The bolt rotates 60 degrees, which gives the knuckles of your hand room to clear the optic. The safety has 2 positions. The rifle feeds from a single stack magazine, and it holds 5+1 rounds. One magazine is included.

Set up for an optic

This rifle has no sights. The receiver is grooved for 11mm dovetail mounts, so you add a scope or other optic on dovetail rings. Pick rings that match that groove, and choose a scope with enough eye relief for a long-barreled rifle.

It suits left-handed shooters who want a bolt gun in .22 WMR without working around a right-handed layout. Good companions include a dovetail ring set, a rifle scope, a sling, a padded rifle case, and a cleaning rod with a bore brush sized for the caliber. Stock up on .22 WMR ammunition too, and try a few loads to see which one your rifle likes best.
