How many would like to see this happen?

Means using cheap 223 brass, changing twist for a better one like 1/10". I would like see one in a lh 11xp with an accustock.

I'm in process, well waiting on the barrel, of doing a 20Practical on a R783 action, gathering up the "stuff" needed. The 783 has the savage type nut so the process is very similar from everything I've read.

Ruger has the nut too. I think the 20p or 20/223 would be more popular than the 204.

They make changes all the time now days.

I'm doing a 6x45 on the RAR, waiting on the barrel as well. :rolleyes:

We have built 4 20 Practicals (20-223) off the Savage 12 FV in .223 or the Savage FV in .204. They are fantastic. Shilen Select Match Grade drop in barrels . You have a lot of options for stocks. We also changed the Accu-triggers out to the Rifle Basix set between 4-8 ounces.
