Your not wrong, I see them selling for good money, the 455 is not as well liked, I have a 452 in .17 HRM, that I am going to sell, as prefer the 453 lux in .22 mag, and now I have a CZ .17 hornet I will never use the HRM again.
I have been looking at the 455 Canadian edition, might get one of them in a .22
Cooper makes a real nice rimfire.

Realy? A whole 3mm more bolt travel
Dear god don't buy a 338 or something the bolt travel would blow your mind

It worries some people, personally I couldn't care.

Probably a good thing as I'm saving for a 338

If anyone has an Anshutz with a scruffy stock, this may help you

Some nice looking bits of wood there

I have a cz 452 lux. accurate and nice to look at.

Whats wrong with the 455 , most prefer the thread in barrel/action ie the old Brno/CZ models is 452 and older , over the new 455 slip in barrel

If you are considering older rifles then the BSA Century magazine version is very accurate. Also, a thinned down BSA target rifle (12/15 type) if a single shot is OK.
