[GlennGTR]

Not sure but on what rifle to get but I know I want another 204.My next gun purchase is in the works its a rem 700 lv sf in 221fireball me and that caliber have history.Mostly me killing stuff in my youth in Montana turkeys ,prariedogs ,martin fox coyotes lynx and one wolverine.Way back in the the day the 70s lol.I own a 77 ultralight all weather in the 204 and was amazed at the accuracy in such a willowy barrell.I was addicted. All your pics of your shoots down in easter OR made me homesick .I used to live in Madras even worked in the now historical Oscars sporting goods .Big R sporting goods...not so historical and Deschutes River outfitters.Love the pics Rick in
Oregon ,takes me lots of familiar places.Im thinking Ruger #1 varminter,maybe the target model,Sako85 varminter stainless,Maybe a lv sf to match the 221 fireball.Whos shot the number 1?Ive always had my a warmspot for the number 1s eventhough ive never owned one.All feedback welcome.I do want to shoot off the bench and in the field, .

I don't own a #1 in 204 but I did have the opportunity to shoot one and it was a nice rifle. I'm currently working on 3 #1V's, all lam/stainless. One is going to be a 221 Fireball, another will be a 20 Vartarg, and the last will be a 17 Fireball. And my banker has given the approval for 3 XP-100's in matching chamberings. Actually I have not committed on the lam/stainless for the 221 as I'm considering walnut/blue for that one. My plans are to shoot 40 grainers in the 221, 32/35 grainers in the 20 VT, and 20/25 grainers in the 17 Fireball. If you've got a warmspot for the #1 then owning one or two is just icing on the cake!
