Remington 600 in .222rem. kind of a wierd rifle, but i like it and it's a tack driver.
also want to customize my 10/22, and i have a mini 14 i've been looking at upgrading. clarks has some neat stuff for that rig.

this one's in the works...this is the clarks custom one with the barrel stabilizer, trigger job, a/m stock. the only other thing mine will have is a scope.

That's a beauty, there Jac! Looks like nothing but fun!

My current favorite is a .22 Hornet Cooper Classic w/ 4x12 Leupold. It's just very easy to shoot. :tung:
It's a great life if you don't weaken

The one that I use to kill almost all of my varmints is the good OLD .250 Savage.  That goofy lever action is still a tack driver!

Anyone have much experience with the Remington VS SF II ? Looking for a .223 to plunk around with that has some accuracy.

I dont, but take a look at CZ. They are amazingly accurate, and the price is right too. My dad has one in 22 LR and one in 204 Ruger.

T/C Encore in .204 when i want to save furs.  Rem 700 in 22-250 for other calling.  I've never called in a lion, but for calling bears (never called one of them either) i carry a 7.65X53 Arg mauser.
