On the heavy barreled ones I hog out the barrel channel so the stock can't touch the barrel no matter how I rest the gun, works for me. I just bought a bunch of raffle tickets on the same rifle, didn't win. second year in a row.

Its like AWS says some people dont like the feel of the stocks but i didnt mind it at all. Im thinking ofpicking up one myself.
Its a heavy gun... a little heavier than i was expecting with the tapered fluted barrle

Post by: wildweeds on February 23, 2013, 12:55:57 PM: On order and will be here Wedensday,to revisit this a little another question................ BDC scope on a .204 ? Looking at the trajectory it would appear to me it shoots flat enough to not really require one? Thinking of putting the same 4x12 vx2 AO that my .243 sports.

As an aside note, 4 sporting goods stores in the whatcom skagit area didn't have time for me apparantly as they all had a week to work it out,I ordered this through a private FFL guy,talked to him last night at 9 oclock and at 930 this morning he called me back with 3 located and an out the door price.He's got all them outfits beat on customer service I know that.
