The CZ 457 is a series of magazine-fed bolt-action rimfire repeating rifle manufactured by the Czech firearms manufacturer Česká zbrojovka Uherský Brod and imported into the United States by CZ-USA.[1][2]

The barrel of the CZ 457 can be easily changed and replaced with other barrels of the brand designed for self-firing ammunition. It is widely used in shooting sports because of its accuracy.
