Thanks for the info this is my first such rifle and I did a lot of reasearch on the optics and thats what I came up with. I got a lot of good info from CGN So if you guys are willing to help this newbe out I have more questions.

what kind of mounts? I like the sounds of the Ken Farrell rails one piece VS two and what about MOA do I get them with some MOA or just standard I want to shoot at best 300 M . I also heard that the buris Sig rings are the best does any one have an opinion on these choices ?

I am getting a set of Redding dies from another Gun nutter great price too :)

Here is another question why and how do you glass bed a rifle

Thanks for all the help
 
for me thats one of the attractions. I have been a blazer all my life so now it is time to shoot slowly with just one shot. Kind of romantic I guess.

I can alway spray and pray at the IPSC matches hahaha

Does any one have a link to P&D

Thanks
 
For that cartridge, distance and scope, you will not need any type of canted base or rings. Reg. Weaver and Burris Sig rings will do just fine (the insert kind if you don't want to mar up your scope tube). In fact, you wouldn't need a LR scope with 30mm tube either. Big bucks if you don't plan on using its abilities.

Consider a 1" tube scope WITH the turrents and reticle you want. Way cheaper and far less headache then buying a new scope then sending it back to the factory for upgrades.

The Elite 3200 10X and Nikon Buckmaster 4X14 SF mildot come to mind. For more money, the Elite 4200 6X24 mil dot is superb.

For 300m, you will not need target turrents but always nice to have. The PD is more then big enough to allow you to dope using fur. Mil dots also help a lot and far easier to find in a scope these days. Mil dot will be way faster to adjust then chasing the turrents in your scope.

Bedding is about matching the stock inletting to the action for a glove like/stress free fit. This really helps with consistency which leads to better accuracy as you can tune your ammo properly.

A layer of epoxy impregnated with steel is gooped between the action and stock. Left to cure, it forms a new hard shell with a mirror image of the action. The action is now held in place by the stock/inletting instead of depending on the action screws or bent action to fit the lousy inletting.

With most factory rifles/stocks, bedding can improve accuracy by as much as 50%.

If you decide you want to go the Farrel route, I have a zero MOA base for the short Savage action in like new condition that I will not be using. PM me.

I got mine in 204 Ruger on Thursday. Hopefully I will be shooting it by Sunday. I heard only four made it into Canada. 2 to Lebarons and 1 to Wholesale Sports in Edmonton and one here in Regina. All 4 of them were 204s.
