That is a nice looking rifle, and from all I've read it should be a tack driver.

just so you don't make any rash decisions on the accuracy .... if it were mine, I would mop it out good then aimlessly shoot the first 20-30 rounds into a dirtbank just begin the bore smoothing and basic function testing. Then give it a thorough cleaning and put up a target. Every firearm I've ever owned just got better and better with use. Just my experiences.

I won't disagree it might get better with use but CZ barrels are pretty darned good out of the box.
