Well this week it sounds like we found a shop that wants to make these as bad as us! Only a few days in and production samples getting knocked out! 13rd as of now but 10 and 15 on the drawing board
Just put rds down the chamber. It takes a few hundred just to get it started. 1000 is when it’s broken in.
What's everyone doing for barrel break-in on these bad boys?
It never hurts to run a patch through a brand new barrel in my opinion. That way, any dirt, dust, grit, shavings or processing oils will be removed before firing first time.
Dry patch first. You want to get any foreign material out of there if there is any. I use Hoppes 9, for wet patch, but then I’m old fashioned. Unless your bore as received is really dirty, don’t bother with wet patch until after shooting.

The new L3i mags are going to be fully tested tomorrow......can't wait. The 10 and 15 rd ones coming soon.
I need some help from you woodworkers. While cleaning my brand new unused Varmint MTR the stock got blemished from the solvent. My first thought was to use Birchwood Casey Walnut Stain thinned out a bit and try to blend it in. But any input would be greatly appreciated. Also what is a good way to add some shine to the stock.
Shot the mags in the match today.......they ran flawless. Had a few people try them out and they ran very well.
About 5 people in TX are ready to place orders just from the ones that were at the match today.
From a fairly new guy to the platform. What are the benefits or metal/billet mags? Sorry if this has been covered before.
Availability, rd count, and made to precise standards. There will be 10, 13 and 15 rd counts.
Having tested them in match conditions........I won't go back to factory 10 rd ones.
I'll post up videos of them tomorrow in action.
Samples all running like tops! A slight adjustment needed for the catch but that's an easy drawing fix
Any idea on when you will be ready for retail?
What are you guys using for action screw torque and magazine well torque for the CZ457 Varmint Precision Trainer?
Since I'm actually paying attention now......go buy the DIP alumunum magwell and magwell block, and the Anarchy Outdoors extended mag release. There was another recent failure here with the stock plastic magwell. It cracks in the front where the screw is or disintegrates from the cleaning solvents.
I just purchased that the other day. I order the Magwell, Magwell block, and the extended magazine release all from DIP.
Billet mags are still making progress. We found an awesome shop to help manufacture and get these to market as fast as we can. Fixtures are being made right not for the machining and springs are in process as well. It's hard to say how fast we can move but we are pushing hard to get the first shipment out still this summer. We put them on the site so people could sign up to be notified the second they show up in stock.
When we launch a new product we typically run a sale on products that can go along with it so when these go live be sure to look at the CZ bolt knob, extensions and mag block prices.

Progress! 13rds will be launching first and we're looking to hard anodize samples next week.
Plus the 10rd design is done
.15rd design will be next.
Was playing around with the krg bravo and figured I would try to switch to the xray rear. Took a little bit of trimming on the grip, very minimal, but it bolted right up.
I got a buddy that wants to get into NRL22 on the cheap. Would this be a good rifle to get and slap a MDT XRS chassis on it?
Good! I believe that's what the hangup was, they were labeled as gun parts/accessories for a short time like mine was
He’s got a $1500 budget I think I can get him a decent setup that balances so he can actually make so hits and stick with it.
Are all the different CZ 457 models using the same action/bottom metal so they all work in aftermarket chassis or stocks or is it only certain models?

Yes ll CZ 457's have the same action/bottom metal,
The alloy DIP magwell & mag release is a good idea too.
I was considering between the Tikka t1x, Cz457, and Bergara b14r. Did this to help decide. Yes I was looking left handed so models and options are oriented that way with the general slight price increase that entails. Going off msrp except for my actuals on the T1x I got.
Shootable for me was gun + rail + threads since I have a Thunderbeast 22 take down.
