Well I just came across an interesting oddity at Cabelas....
I found a Model 12 (4X4) (etched on the bolt) in .204 ruger....
Same black tupperware stock as my 10fp in .308....same accutrigger, same bolt handle, etc.
Blackened bull barrel,no sights but a 20" barrel.
Didn't know much about it...but based on my prior Savages and the fact I was looking for a .204 it seemed to
fit the bill...beside it was a 12 longe range varmint rig...for $900 fluted SS laminated stock, etc..
Price on the 12 (4x4) was $449...so I figured what the heck...I can always get a better stock down the road.

My searches have not turned up much other than it was made about 1 year....based on the conversation with the guys in the
gun library (price was in red meaning it was below their margin so they couldn't budge on it) I jumped on it...put it in lay-a-way.

Anyone here have any knowledge of these ?
Now I need to figure out what scope to get for it...dies, brass, etc...

It is just like my 10 FP .308 just shorter...
