Now THATS going to be a tack driver!
You have to get that out and post some pics of the groups for us. I can't wait to see how that shoots and I'm sure you can't either. Congrats on a beautiful 204! BTW...what NF scope is that?

Jason.......Way to go!! Hope you enjoy your Stock and that sweet caliber of choice. Please let us know how she shoots. Share some target pics when you get her out. Is the stock color your choice or what they had in stock?
Thanks for sharing and glad when a project comes together.
Later

Thanks for the comments guys
Scope is a NF BR 3.5 x 15 x 56. I chose the colour Mcmillan call it urban camo, the gray was meant to be white
but I am glad it arrived gray because it blends in better.
I went to the range to do a basic sight in yesterday.I am only using factory loads at the moment to get the brass.It loved the 32gr v maxs and hated the 40grs which was no surprize.
Need to do some hand loads and fine tune .
Will post some target pics up next range trip .couldnt been bothered waiting for target change this time

Jason - a buddy of mine has a rifle built with the old McMillan Baker Special stock - in that same "urban camo" pattern. Very cool looking rifle, he's used it for match shooting for about 15+ years now, as both a .308 and as a .22-250 with a fast-twist barrel. The rifle was well known here in the Pacific Northwest 10 years ago when he was doing a lot of match shooting with it. Unusual camo pattern, and I like it. McMillan builds a good stock.
Congrats on a nice looking rig!

Medic: You can get new Remington Short Actions (or Long) direct from Brownells if wanted. They're usually in stock in stainless and carbon steel.
