Petes Pillars CZ457 Barrel TESTED!!! 

Hey Josh get your hands on one of Kenny’s Desert Precision Gunworks (DPG) barrels to try out. They look like tack drivers.

Also curious about the barrel L3i has on their site. Exciting to see support growing for the 457.

For the price that's pretty decent performance. Shirts arrived today, thanks Josh.

Need one of Kenny’s new cz barrels

Thanks Josh! Another great video! I appreciate the round count you burnt!!!

Oh btw, my cz457LRP that you set me up with, won its first silhouette competition.

Did you do a break in on the barrel? If not could you and re do the test with some of the ammo that preformed good?

Looks like a good upgrade for someone who has the thin profile barrels and looking for some extra performance.

Thanks, great shooting and video. Funny whenever you're wringing it out, then mention it, next shot is a miss

The woopy-cushion part was hilarious 😅

Try Whidden Gunworks in Nashville Georgia for lot testing ammo. They are the Eley USA testing center but will test any ammo

Josh may get even better with breaks in

Eley Contact - any thoughts? I've had excellent results, CZ457 20 inch bull barrel w/tuner.

How about the new 24" EABCO Match barrel for 457 :-) Inquiring minds want to know. 🙂

So you started out to make a video and do some testing and then towards the end the fun factor just took over. Thanks for another very informative video.

Great video! I have a Pete’s Pillar barrel as well on my Cz457 and it does not like SK ammo that well either, at least the lots I have tested, but it surely likes CenterX, it is the very light one, I believe aluminum? It has like a texture black finish on the outside and like stainless steel inside but I believe is a light aluminum type.

With those types of groups what’s the point of replacing the stock barrel? I don’t see a huge improvement over the stock barrel.

All work and no play makes Josh a dull boy ! ( fly)

How do you fill your shots? The scope cam set up. Do you have a link?

Thanks man appreciate the content!!!

I must of lucked out on my MTR barrel, it shoots insanely accurate.

You must be really anal about accuracy. Most of those groups were pretty damm good by my old man standards.

My question is: are the guys that but that barrel going to spend the money for the higher dollar ammo it liked with this barrel tested?

Aim small miss small

Does anybody know what the BC is for SK standard plus 40 grain? I can't find it anywhere

Well that was not good. The original barrel on my MTR shoots sub MOA out to 100 meters, shooting SK rifle match and long range match.

Would i replace my factory MTR barrel with a pete's barrel...? that's a tough one!

Josh the scoping of the barrel, how does that compare to the rest of your competition barrels? Does the 22" length help from a 20"? Looks a little scratchy, is that common? Should it be smooth or polished looking? You should do that with the rest you shoot. Thanks like you videos

Hi, Josh. Have you ever tried Ultra Extreme Long Range cartridges from Your favorite ELEY? Now it is in stock with Killough Shooting Sports.

Thanks for the borescope footage Josh, just shows what a cows ass my 452 barrel is.. nice rifling, crown etc but the breech looks like a dog has chewed the beginning of the lands... can't replace the barrel so its going to go... 457 barreled action is next when I can get one on this side of the pond...

Every manufacturer use own lubricant for bullets coating when switching between brands accuracy suffers until surface of rifling is coated completely with giving brand lubricant When I was testing 22lr ammo many years ago I completely cleaned previous coating and fired 5 rounds to make fresh coating of barrel for accuracy test Then you can find true accuracy of the ammunition I noticed consistent friction resulting better accuracy

Hey Josh, have you or anyone you knw had a machinist take a stock CZ MTR 20.5" barrel and cut an 11degree crown on it?

I wish someone would do this with the Lilja Ruger precision rimfire barrel.. lol Josh. If you have contact with Lilja it would be awesome if they made a videos or helped someone make them. Lol

Stop leaning on the scope, will you.

Would be even better without Biden! But I know that is out of your control.

I can't find a 457 barrel in stock anywhere how do you always come up with them.

Josh, What was your head space? Do you check the ammo you’re testing for rim thickness and set to the average for that ammo?

Using SK or Lapula I use baby wipes for my hands and revolvers to clean.

Another good test with this barrel or any other if you have a Waltz resizer die you can run 10 unsized then 10 sized and see if you get any improvement I would suspect you would on some.

Is it safe to dry fire a cz? I've read cz are safe to dry fire. and... all 22lr never dry fire . Good barrel review Thanks

How does this compare to the stock CZ barrel? Thanks.

Borescope looks like they used a Savage railroad-track reamer.

Very cool! It would be interesting to see a follow up video and how Team shoots at a farther distance with that barrel.

Another Great Video💯 Thanks for Sharing 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Josh, just for giggles can you either hand lap or fire lap to see if it improves ?

Between the thicker Lilja that is coming out and the Modacam, which would you pick and why?

Random question, what kind of bipod is that?

So how would you rank after market barrels?

Cool!! looking forward to watching!

I appreciate your vids and have learned quite a bit. I'm a CZ fan boy based performance and my budget (Voodoos and Rim-X have been replaced by my kid's college tuition). How many rounds would you expect a CZ barrel to last, as well as, third party ones? This is assuming a reasonable regimine of cleaning without damage during cleaning.

With all respect, wouldn't it be nicer if you put a clean target? 😊

Nice work up. Thanks for

Have you tested a cz IbI barrel yet

If the inside of ny barrel looked like that, it would go strait back to the manufacturer. I would not even shoot it!

CRY ONCE THEY SAY 🤔🤔

And just like that oos

In your opinion…how’s it compare to the factory barrel?

Where did you get the rear bag

That looks like a barrel upgrade that will lead to another barrel upgrade ! Josh, where did you get the mirage cap for your scope?

Better than the IBI? ....🤔

great video thanks

💥🇺🇸❤️‍🩹🇺🇸💥

Greetings

Maybe for a better balance, but I don't know that I have seen a stock barrel shoot worse then that barrel.

Yes Josh see what Norma tac22 match does in it

I was really excited about this test and review ... key word ... "was" I am definitely no professional shooter by any means, but my stock CZ barrel does better than this! Thanks for saving us all 3 beans 😉

👍

😂💨

Who makes that KYL?

Great test, is better than the 20 in MTR barrel?

Thanks for saving me money and time. 🙏👍👍

Appreciate the honest and thorough testing as always.
