I was at my local gun store and the guy told me his father has a Ruger in .204 he uses for varmints. He likes it overall unless there is much wind and then all bets are off since the cartridge is so light it is significantly affected to winds over 10 mph. Don't know if it is a load of crap but that is what he said.

I went with a Savage 12FVSS in 22-250 waiting for the scope to arrive today (Bushnell Elite 4200 4x16x40) Can't wait to try it out.
