camo304 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Just got a Howa .204 with axiom stock and i love it, far less recoil than my 22-250 i traded, cheaper to run and dam good with the nv gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi camo What do'es it shoot like ? Looking to zero mine at about 200 yards.what twist rate is it ,looking for a fast twist so I can use slightly heavier heads as 95% of it's work will be for lamping Charlie Thanks gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyR Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 S/h Sako 75 with a 223 bolt face, new barrel in the twist you want from one of the many sponsors of this site, better than all the factory options and not much dearer depending on the cost of the donor. I bought a Sako 75 stainless laminated last month for £625, it was in excellent nick, a new barrel fitted will set you back £550-650. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a standard 1/12 twist, weighs 14.5lb with scope and pod, but i don't do much walking with it so that ain't problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
