Re: CFE223 anyone?

BK: really haven't shot enough of it to know so far. I just loaded up 25 rounds to check how they shot in relation to what I'd been using with Benchmark and IMR8208. After making sure I was "sighted in" sufficiently, I put 12 rounds on target fairly quickly.....16" barrel with Nikon 3...

Re: remington 204 with a 20 inch barrel

I know your question was directed to Jim White, but I can't help jumping in to say that I don't recall any....or at leave VERY few, who couldn't get 35gr Bergers or 39gr Sierra BK's to shoot like the dickens!

Re: remington 204 with a 20 inch barrel

I had my 24" DPMS reduced to 20" by my gunsmith....he recrowned the barrel, and it had no impact on accuracy at all. http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb419/Vartarg/748e08c8.jpg I haven't checked velocity, but I'm sure it did slow it down a bit, though I doubt it would make much differen...

Re: Tikka T3 .204

Are the T3's in .204 even available in the US? I didn't think so.....sure wish they were, I'd have one!

Re: different pwder

+1 on what Tokimini said!

Also, I just bought some CFE223 and hope to have good results with it for my .204's, along with the .17 Remington.

Re: Opinion on Ruger Mark II Target

I've had mine, which is a .204, since they first came out....it's a very accurate, sturdy rifle, and i've been very satisfied with it.

A-TACS Dip Camo on my .17 Remington AR

I had my relatively new Dtech .17 Remington "dipped" at Extreme Hydrographics near where I live....I was able to drop it off and pick it up....which was convenient. It has a Geissele trigger, and a Vortex Viper 4-16 on a Burris PEPR mount. http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb419/Vartarg/...

Re: WTB .243

I've got a Weatherby Predator Master in .243 that I've had for about 15 years, and I occasionally carry it when calling. IF I were in the market for one today, I'd sure be looking at the Tikka Lite SS in ;243...bunch of them on Gunbroker right now. Everything I've heard or read about them is positiv...
