Answer 1

I was just shooting my CZ 452 today. They come in different calibers, mine is a .22 magnum. It seems to shoot the smallest groups at 100 yards with the Remington Accu-Tip ammunition, followed by Federal with the Speer TNT bullet, and the CCI Gamepoint ammunition.

It has a Burris 6x scope with target k***s and a target dot on fine crosshairs.

It has Leupold high rings for a 3/8 inch dovetail mount.

It has a steel 5 shot clip.

All shots were taken off a concrete bench using a Caldwell front rest and a sandbag for the rear rest.

The target was a "Shoot-and See" type in the shape of a prairie dog and placed at 100 yards.

I just bought several different kinds of ammo, and compared them to find the one that is the most accurate. No chronograph or computer software needed.

Answer 2

Although I own a CZ452, nothing that works with mine is guaranteed to work with yours. You need to do the research yourself. Which ammo works best in your specific rifle can only be determined by testing a number of them at the range on targets to see which groups best. Be aware that, in general, the hyper-velocity loads are not as accurate as the standard velocity ammo.

So, choose your ammo according to how you're going to use it. For target shooting, you'll do best with standard velocity target loads. And, even for hunting, you may find that standard velocity hollowpoints could be a lot more accurate than the high speed loads, and that fact alone could make them more effective on game.

High speed alone does not necessarily make the best ammo. It will really come down to which load shoots best in your rifle. Anything anybody else recommends is simply useless information.
