i bought the 452 and you can adjust it yourself.
i eventually bought a brooks trigger spring kit for 10 bucks.
it was easy to install.
it didnt really need it but i did it anyway.
8 oz. trigger

i think i paid $365 ?
i cant remember but i know it wasnt much.

A set trigger allows a shooter to have a greatly reduced trigger pull (the resistance of the trigger) while maintaining a degree of safety in the field. There are two types: Single Set and Double Set. A Single Set Trigger is usually one trigger that may be fired with a conventional amount of trigger pull weight or may be 'set' by usually pushing forward on the trigger. This takes up the creep in the trigger and allows the shooter to enjoy a much lighter trigger pull.

the cz has a single set.
