OK, I got my new 457 early and of course the next order of business is optics, which obviously require mount/rings. Im looking at Talley for rings because this type of firearm would look just horrible with any picatinny rail stuck on it whereas a simple scope/rings will give it that classic look to it.
Looking at Talleys site they have some different rings for the different cz models in different heights, the 452/453 rings come in .350" and .500" I think it was and if Ive done my math correctly one of the 452/453 ring sets will put my scope on the 457 with minimal clearance.
But, are the 452/453 dovetails the same? I know theyre both an 11mm dovetail but is the base of the rings the same shape, if they have any shape? I dont know much about these cz rifles because this is my first one. Granted if I did just mount a pic rail on my rifle I would have any concerns and could use any ring of appropriate height but I dont want to do that.
So to anyone familiar with the Talley cz rings, would the 453/452 rings mount on the 457 receiver CORRECTLY?
