I do not plan on competing, but I want the best accuracy per $ that I can get under $650 (assuming I could get MTR for that out the door). Anyone have any input, is the MTR worth the additional cost/loss of threaded muzzle (not sure I will ever put a can on it, though having the option in case I decide to would be convenient). I have searched the forums but can not find a definitive comparison or pros/cons list between the Pro Varmint and Varmint MTR, probably because the Pro Varmint is so new, which makes me wonder how it compares to the Tacticool. I am considering the Pro Varmint and Varmint MTR as I like their stocks over a more traditional stock (one of my Savages has a similar stock). My experience is mostly with Savage center fires and C&R guns (mausers, K31, mosi,n, etc), but I want to up my 22 LR game (I also have two 11 year olds I want to get back to the range), and a lot of what I am reading says CZ is one of the best ways to go. With the exact same swappable barrel system as the 455 and the same reliable polymer magazine system, the 457 is without a doubt the best rimfire platform we’ve ever fielded.I am not a competition shooter, just like to go to the range when I can. To top it all off, the 457 now features a trigger adjustable for weight, creep and over-travel. To make scope fitment easier, we ditched the 90° bolt rotation in favor of 60°, allowing for larger ocular bell diameters with lower ring heights. The stamped bottom metal of the 455 is gone, swapped for a classy two-piece interlocking system. In addition to the receiver-mounted, push-to-fire safety, we chopped almost an inch of length from the action and slab-sided it to reduce its footprint and weight. Though that was the most obvious change, we also took the opportunity to tweak a load of small things at the same time. If we were to pick one thing that our previous rimfire platforms were lacking, it was an American-style push-to-fire safety - something Hunter’s Education instructors and 4-H shooting coaches have begged us to incorporate for years. Combined with our cold hammer forged Varmint barrel (threaded 1/2×28), the Precision Trainer is a paper-puncher with surgical precision. The stock itself has multiple layers of carbon fiber and fiberglass hand-laid in high-temperature epoxy resins, then placed in a vacuum and heat-cured to create the perfect resin-to-fabric ratio. Though the golden days of cheap and plentiful 22 LR ammo may be behind us, the Precision Trainer has become more popular than we ever could have imagined.īased off the PRS1 stock, this special Manners carbon-fiber composite stock provides a rock-solid platform and is finished in a two color camouflage pattern with a base of carbon fiber peeking through the background. A special color scheme graces its carbon fiber Manners stock, with orange highlights to denote this as an upgraded version of an already premium gun.Ī constant in our rimfire line, the Precision Trainer was designed to provide the same look and feel as a full-size tactical rifle while allowing for more economical training. With a Match chamber and a stiff 16.5” heavy barrel, it’s threaded 1/2×28 to allow easy installation of a suppressor or muzzle device. Always a favorite in our rimfire line, the Varmint Precision Trainer gets a boost in accuracy with the addition of a barrel borrowed from the Match Target Rifle.
