yesterday i called my LGS to see if my PTA has finished and they replied with "yeah mate you can come pick it up when ever"
i said "ill be there in 20 min"
after 2 and a half hours at the fun shop and a fair bit of cash later i walked out with my very own
savage model 12 BTCSS in .204 ruger with a 6-24X50 olivon ranger scope and Harris bipod and a few boxes of ammo
ammo pictured is hornardy 32gr v-max Winchester super X 32gr hollow points and Winchester 32gr ballistic silvertips

Why .204? Haven't come across that one

Post subject:  Re: my new baby

im mainly using it for a long range bunny buster.
for the warrens that are to hard to stalk up to with air rifle or bow.

its a good flat shooter and just very fun to shoot.
alot of people are trading their 223's in for .204's
