CZ setup.

Post by GR350 »

I just got a new 452. I now need assistance with scope mounting so I'm going to ask.
As soon as I scrape up the cash I'll be getting a Leupy 6.5 x 20 from George. After a lot of searching I'm fairly settled of the Burris Zee rings. The only two remaining questions are what adapters to use to mate the rings to the rifle and what height rings to get. I've never done this before so I have no baseline to go by. If I can get the adapter question nailed down that will simplify the ring height issue. Anybody try the BKL dovetail to Weaver rail adapter?

Thanks.

Which CZ? I have seen and shot 2 Style/Silhouettes with BKL offset mounts that fit and worked very well. I'd stay away from adaptors, more to work loose/mess with but that is just me....

I agree. I have used both BKL and Burris rings and the BKLs are much better. I'd go with the high ones but ring height is a highly personal thing.

Skip Burris Zee (Weaver) rings with adapter and get Burris Signature high dovetail (rimfire) rings instead.
They will fit both 3/8 and 11mm dovetail and pos-align inserts will help you to center your scope in the optimal adjustment range.

To answer the question: The CZ is a 452 style. Supposed to be like the silhouette but in brushed nickle.
So I have two to look at: The BKL offset mounts ( P/N BKL-374) and the Burris dovetail rimfire (P/N 420556). Somebody please check the part numbers.

Thanks a lot. Can't hardly wait to take this thing out to the range.

Either P/N 420556 or P/N 420555, depends if you want gloss or matte finish.

Exactly what I had on my Style, will need to shim up the rear a little to get the elevation adjustment in the middle of the range. Good rings especially for the price. Get the silver ones to match the reciever.

A big +1 from me here. I have been through a few sets of rings over the past year and about a month ago I bought my first "nice" glass (more expensive than the gun type glass) and with the new scope I also got Burris Signature rimfires in the high format. With them I ordered a set of the burris insert rings and using the combinations available I was able to set my scope to shoot nice and straight while completely centered in its adjustment range, thus using the minimal amount of adjustment necessary to move between the distances. The burris inserts are a non-marring hard plastic, also, which should mean the scope can't possible get marked up by the rings.

I loved the system so much I immediately bought a second set of the same rings for my wife's 22 which is also my backup silhouette rifle (or loaner). I have a CZ455 with the 11mm dovetail and the burris sigs grabbed on perfectly with a swap of the attachment piece (both styles are included).

Confirmed. This is the part number I'm using on the 455. PN 420555 is the same thing in gloss black instead of matte.

I am using these on my CZ455 American currently and I have used the BKL rings in the past. Both are great rings with the BKL being less expensive.
