Yep. Did you get to go out and shoot it? how did you do?

yes i did but i only got to shoot about thirty shots. but the last two shots at 115yards where touching each other. i think that is pretty good for a new rifle and that i only shot it 30 times. oh ya all of the last 6 shots where within 1 1/2" group. i think with more practice i can get a lot better than that. what do you think?

A few months ago, I would say the 223 only. I still might due to availability of components. But I have been working with a 204 and can't believe how that little sucker performs. Its as flat as a 22-250 with a lighter bullet. When I worked up some loads, I thought they were bogus. I was .75" high at 100 and 1.5" low at 200 with .5MOA performance.

I was shocked.

Either way you can't go wrong. They claim, (they say alot) that the barrel life will be like a .223.
