Thanks to the applied improvements and precise design, the rifle allows to obtain a group of shot of only 15 mm at a distance of 50 m.
The CZ 457 Varmint MTR carbine used a beautiful walnut stock with non-slip checkering on the profiled pistol grip and the front of the bed. The shape of the grip and the butt are modeled after the models of high-performance sporting carbines used by Olympic shooters.
