The Timney CZ 457 Trigger is a drop-in replacement trigger with a curved shoe for CZ 457 rimfire bolt-action rifles.
Unlock the CZ 457's real accuracy — Timney's drop-in trigger gives the rimfire benchmark the break it deserves.
The Timney CZ 457 Trigger replaces the factory unit with a hand-assembled, hand-tested trigger that transforms the 457's already excellent action. The curved shoe presents a clean, crisp break with no creep and minimal overtravel — the difference between shooting near a rimfire's mechanical accuracy and actually reaching it. On a platform this popular for NRL22, benchrest practice and precision plinking, the trigger is among the highest-return upgrades available.
Timney has specialized in triggers since 1946, and every unit is calibrated and tested by hand before it ships. Black finish, curved shoe, and the confidence of one of the oldest names in triggers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which rifles does this Timney trigger fit?
It is made for the CZ 457 rimfire family and drops in as a replacement for the factory trigger. It is not intended for the earlier CZ 452 or 455 actions. If you are not certain which generation your rifle is, check the model marking or contact us with the serial details before ordering.
Why fit a replacement trigger to a CZ 457?
The point of a purpose-built replacement is a cleaner, more consistent break than a factory unit, which helps most on the small targets rimfire shooters tend to work with. This is Timney's CZ457 unit in black, made in the USA. It replaces the factory trigger as a unit rather than being a tuning kit for the original.
Is this the curved or the straight shoe version?
This listing is the curved shoe in black. A curved shoe puts the finger in a more traditional position and tends to suit shooters who already like the factory feel. Timney does not publish an adjustment range for this model, so if a specific pull weight matters to you, ask us before ordering.
What else do I need to install it?
It is designed as a drop-in for the CZ 457, so no permanent alteration to the rifle should be needed, though the usual care about function-checking after installation applies. Nothing else has to be bought alongside it.
