Just a little maple-stocked CZ with a 4-12x Leupold.

I`m not normally into light coloured stock`s,but that is really nice.

Here is a picture of my TikkaT3 Varmint .204 topped with a Meopta Meostar R1 4-16x44 resting on Optilock rings and mounts.

Dang...... Now where could I have lost my bolt?............

Here's a couple pics of one of 204 Rugers. B&C stock, Rem 700 action blue printed wearing a 26" fluted Hart 1-12 barrel and nightforce scope.......

Ray P...........all I can say is D R O O L !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ray: Very, very nice indeed, and the bughole group bears testimony to the rifles shooting abillity, not to mention the shooter also. That is one sweet rig. Congrats on the build.

yah man almost time to get into the field

My first post!!!
Here are a few pictures of my new Savage LRPV chambered in .204. (I know we all like pictures)
It has the new target AccuTrigger adjustable from 6oz to 2.5lbs. I have no idea what it is set at from the factory (haven't picked up a Lyman trigger pull gauge yet) but absolutely love it . I'm assuming it's around the 8-10oz mark from my experience. The receiver is skim bedded with 10110 Devcon. I went with a Near Manufacturing stainless steel one piece picatinny base with 10MOA, and Near Manufacturing twin screw stainless rings. Near's products are a work of art, honestly. The fit and finish is imaculate. They supply the US Army, US Navy, and Canadian RCMP with bases and rings. This stuff is NOT CHEAP! The base is 3 times more expensive than a Davidson, and the rings are double those of benchrest quality Kelbly's. Anyways... enough about those. The scope is a Leupold custom shop VXIII 6.5-20 with target cross hair and 1/8MOA dot. I'm a hold ON guy in the field, I'm a clicker. The bipod is Harris BR outfitted with a Pod-Loc and a set of Pod-Paws, and the bag is a #40 Protektor. This thing sits solid. From my calculations it weighs in at 15.5lbs.
I'm shooting up some Hornady 32gr factory loaded ammo for brass (all the same Lot#). I didn't know how the 32's would shoot in this rifle, but it's averaging 5/8 inch groups. Not great, but not horrible from a factory rig. I'm pretty confident that under 1/2 is possible with handloads. I am going to try CCI BR4's, H4895, and 39gr Sierra BLK's. I'm really hoping this Savage likes the 39gr Sierra's because I really want to shoot them, they have a great BC for varminting. I'm open to powder choice. I'll start with H4895 because so many people are using it with great success (including my neighbour in his CZ), but if it doesn't work with my combination I'll try some Reloader 10X.
Thanks for all the work here, I've been lurking for many months and have learned a lot.

SWEET Got to love them Match triggers set at about 7 ounce

I guess it's about time I get in on this. Here's my AR.

Nice Savage - Q - Where did you get the bolt on scope level? I can see where that would help me.

Thanks.

Oh - here is my new 204.

John Noveske Custom AR in .204 SS 24" 1:10 barrel, two stage RRA trigger. Leupold VXL 6.5X20X56.







Pictured here with one of its safe mates, Sabre Defence SPR 5.56, 18" fluted match barrel, single stage match trigger, Leupold Mark 4 LR/T 4.5X14X50 illuminated TMR

Been trying to get this thing ready for a month now, between paint and looking for the right glass. Almost done, just need a trigger job and get the optics painted to match. Might get the painting done but the factory trigger is going to have to do for the first shoot of the year (countdown: 5 days!).

Hey Big_Bullseye,
Thanks for the props. You got a pretty nice looking AR there! The level is called an Anti Cant Device, the following are some places where you can pic one up.
