RE: First varmint rig
might wanna rethink the caliber if your typical shooting is over 300...yes, that 204 will reach out there..but a light cross wind is gunna take that bullet in a hurry..alot of guys like something a hair bigger (6mm-243 range) for anything past 300 or so...
i bought a 22-250 this summer...love it. but i dont get much shooting past 350, most being 200 or less, and groundhogs dont like windy days all too much, so i dont shoot in the wind...
but if your like me, and most your shooting falls around 300 or less, and the occassional poke, than youd most likely be ok...
