steve_b_wales Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 I bought a new 452 in .17HMR. The trigger could be altered so much, but not enough for my liking. I bought a YoDave kit off Ebay and just changed one spring. I could'nt believe the difference it made. The trigger pull is very light now, but not enough to cause it to discharge if bumped. I would highly recommend these kits. Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Hi mate,I've got the CZ 455 Thumbhole Varmint .17HMR. I believe the factory setting trigger weight pull on this rifle is 4lbs.I bought a Trigger Kit from www.rimfiremagic.co.uk and I put the hardest spring in the Trigger and is down to 2.2lbs now and fires much much nicer. I wasnt gonna buy a Trigger kit but after buying one i would highly recommend it.For around £14 it's money well spent IMO and comes complete with instructions. ATVB.

joe soapy Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 There must be thousands of those little rollers and spare springs sitting in drawers unwanted round the world now.. Some poor archaeological type will be tearing his hair out at some point in the future, trying to work out what these things were for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) Only YOU can decide if your CZ needs trigger work. I have had a number of CZ rimfires. MY current .22lr and my last WMR were/are original and fine, my lads .22lr is ok but not great (he is happy) my latest HMR was awful and my latest WMR wasn't good, I have replaced both of those with the Brooks kit. If you need trigger work my opinion is the various trigger kits (£8.50-£15) are probably the best and cheapest money you will ever spend on a rifle accessory/replacement!

pigeonblasterian Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Just changed the springs today in my 17hmr and 22lr. Bought two Yodave kits and fitted the second lightest spring in each rifle. Much better pull now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Bang Dan Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Hi all ive got a cz 455 hmr and thinking of changing the trigger so its a lighter pull Are the kits easy to change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Hi all ive got a cz 455 hmr and thinking of changing the trigger so its a lighter pull Are the kits easy to change Mine was simple. I just removed a spring, which came off easily, and changed it to a lighter one. It improved the pull and feel of the trigger so much, that I did'nt have to do anything else. I bought the YoDave kit off Ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Bang Dan Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Have you got to re zero or is it just the trigger that you touch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snipers eye Posted April 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) anyone done this...chop 2 links off the original trigger spring to make it lighter? Edited April 27, 2013 by snipers eye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert 888 Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Do you cut 2" off the end of the barrel also with a hacksaw .Do all the safe people in this world a favour and take it to a good gunsmith , I am a mechanical fitter and do stuff like this for a living but I am not insured to mess with triggers, so I took mine to the gunsmith and got it done for the grand price of £10 and set a 2.4lb. Now I will be covered if I ever had a freak accident. Would you like some ones death on your hands. All the best Albert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Bang Dan Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 Is that all they charge I thought it would cost more than the new trigger i will just take mine to in and let them do it. Like you say it covers your back if ever something went wrong thanks for your advice. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert 888 Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yes,thats all it cost at the local gunsmith for the cz 455,also in that price he checked my normal and set trigger on my 527. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
