    Ruger .204

    I am after a sako .204 or cz .204 preferably with a varmint profile barrel and set trigger
    Probably have to go new but never know what's out there.
    Cheers Andy

    Hi Andy, I’ve got a ss Remington with an after market trigger and a night force bench rest scope!
    It’s not for sale but it shoots very well, neat little calibre, paid $700 for the rifle!! Better than a Tikka!!
    Boom, cough,cough,cough

    @Maca49 I've got a laminate Tikka and a Laminate Howa varmint in 204 and they both shoot unbelievably well with factory ammo, better than any Remington I've ever seen...

    how to get a Remington or Tikka to shoots lights out

    Remington 700 . . . replace trigger, barrel, stock, blueprint action, get a bedding job . . do load development

    Tikka . . . replace factory trigger spring with a YoDave . .. do load development

    probably not true . . but it seems like it is after owning a couple of so so Remingtons
