I got 204 adl varmit with a 26" the most accurate of all my remington. Bought it new two years ago so the new ones are just as well made as the old ones. My mountain rife is a 7/08, it shoots great shot a doe with it a couple of weeks ago. The range was about 225 yards, she went about 15 yards. Got a uncle.that's got one of the first mountain rifles in 270 and killed a ton of deer with it. The only problem is you have to let it cool between shots because the finn barrel heats up.
