Stock trigger is working great for me. Cost is good, decent enough from the factory, simple to adjust...
My two bits.

Re: Trigger for a cz 455 precision trainer?
Took some stones to mine and replaced the spring that was sourced from a ballpoint pen, pretty good IMHO. I am waiting for the CZ Single Set Trigger to come out so I can compare the two and keep the best one.
(Timney, Rifle Basix, DIP adjustable sear, Yodave are other ways to improve the stock trigger or replace it.)

Rifle Basics has a sweet trigger.
I had one in a CZ. No trigger kit compares, no matter
What anyone says. I have had the kits and they r good
But, they don't come close to the "Rifle Basics" drop-in trigger.
I you want a better than "out of the box" trigger then go w/ a kit.
If you want a sweet tigger then go w/ the Rifle Basics.
You can get one for what the up grade factory trigger cost.
Just my .02

I would recommend a trigger kit. I may have gotten lucky but the Yo Dave kit I installed on my 452 is perfect. Did a little polishing with the dremel tool while I had it apart.

Rifle Basix is an awesome unit. I run one on my 452 for rimfire silhouette and could not ask for more.

Just replace the spring. it's cheap enough, and i like it.
First used a cut up firing pin spring, but have received the yodave kit today. Used the 2nd lightest spring, and did a drop test (drop gun on the buttpad from 2ft or so) and it did not fire by accident. The trigger is light enough, and I didn't need to use the shims.

^^ LOL!!
No stones being thrown DF. I don't own a CZ but based on some success with several who have worked on them; I have zero issue with them and might even pick one up.
Just curious what attributes constitute a precision trainer.

i've used rifle basix in my marlins and savages, in my CZ i went with a YO dave trigger kit just to give it a whirl.
for around 20.00 it worked great and remains in the rifle.
though it's not as gucci as putting a timney, rifle basix, jewel or other full trigger replacement, it did produce a light, crisp, and repeatable trigger pull.

plus once you've found your combination of spacer and spring, you have 2 more trigger kits left for any other CZs you may have or swap for something else with your buddy.

Another YoDave here...remarkable what you can do for $20 and a little time. I have the 2nd 'heaviest' spring installed, and I've toyed with the idea of going to the next lightest. Frankly I'm not sure it needs it. I used a spacer (can't remember the color offhand, but it was mid-thickness) and I can't detect any creep.
I was really pleased to find that only a little money and tinkering had such a profound effect.

PMTJ= Poor mans trigger job. Google it or look it up on rimfire central. I did mine and one for a friend and they both break at 8oz and are safe.
I have a YoDave on my 455 and 452 and have had no problems with them
50 bucks for both and cant go wrong

I cut the spring by 1.5 or 2 coils. Then I looked at how much sear engagement I had and proceeded to stone the sear some. Now I can have a nice light pull for the bench or adjust it up for carrying. The take up is almost undetectable. Now I don't see me spending any money on a kit or a new trigger. If you're committed to buying a new trigger anyway, I would try this. If you screw up, then you can spend the money and get the new trigger.
the factory trigger on mine seems to be improving quite a bit with use. At first it was inconsistent and heavy with bad creep on one pull, no creep on the next, etc. As I keep using it, though, the creep is gradually disappearing, and the pull is getting slightly lighter. the heavy grease is getting moved out and the parts are gradually being polished by use.
I don't think there's a cure for the overtravel, though, since you have to hold the trigger all the way back to release the bolt.
