.204 ruger
- Thread starter bowhunter54
- Start date
Dude it is all really Ford/Chevy/Dodge etc...
Here are my choices and why :
Most economical but still solid - Marlin X series closely followed by Howa. I like these over the Edge by Savage for budget rifles. The Marlins have a shit ton of extras in a great price point ($269 on sale) and I love there button rifled barrels and good triggers. Howa makes the American 527y in .204 Now that I think about it the closest Marlin makes is a 25-06...so never mind on the Marlin...
Mid Grade - IMHO you can't beat a Savage with the Accutrigger. The mid grades are where it is harder to decide. IMHO Remington rifles haven't been the same since Cerebrus Capital Management bought them. A buddt that I would trust with rifles still swears by them though. For a strictly hunting rifle my list would be - Savage then Ruger followed by Remington.
Upper end - Browning X bolt...I have an A-bolt (22-250) with the BOSS system that I love so I am a little biased. A Winchester 70 Coyote light is pretty sweet also but it is around $900.
Actually here is a reference of rifles available...

I have a CZ in .22 Hornet. I think they are good well made guns. I haven't shot it much yet. But it seems to be a good shooter.

Oops I forgot one other favorite...damn I love guns. A good gun at a great price point is the Howa 1500.
