Custom Savage. It started as a 204, but I had it cut back and chambered to 20 Tactical (uses regular 223 brass). 22" heavy barrel. The action was blue printed by Sharp Shooter, it has an over-size lug, Sharp Shooter trigger (much better than accu-trigger), Tactical bolt handle, and a Bell and Carlson Carbelite Stock. Also sent the bolt out to Gre-tan and had it bushed and put in a smaller diameter firing pin. This rifle will shoot under an inch all day. I have several pdog kills out past 500 yards with it. Comes with bases installed. I have 270 rounds of 40 grain Nosler Balistic tips, and 44 rounds of 40 grain Hornady V-Max that I loaded specifically for this rifle. Same load and I found both bullets to shoot equally well. Rifle and ammo $650 shipped in conus.

You say it uses 223 brass,is it a 20 tactical or 20 practical?The 20 practical is a 223 simply necked down to 20 caliber.
It is a 20 tactical. The 20 practical is very similar. They both use 223 brass necked down, but the tactical is fire formed after the first shot for a different shoulder angle.
FWIW, Lapua also makes factory Tactical .20 brass (Headstamped Dakota, but it's Lapua).
