My 15 y/o nephew wants a gun for coyotes and has settled on a .204 Ruger. Does anyone have one for sale? Preferably a less expensive bolt action. He's looking to max out at around $450 on price. I'll be happy to broker the sale here at the 'fire.
Thank you!

I've had 204s in the RAR-Predator, Remington 700, and Savage 11.
The RAR-P shoots both the 32 and 40 grain Fiocchi BT ammo sub-moa, but groups start to open if I don't clean it after every 50 rounds.
Here are a couple that I saw on the 'net.
There is a Savage 11 package gun in 204 with a Nikon 3-9x40 on GB for $400, the seller is MIDWEST77.
Whittaker's has a Howa Mini for $330.
I thought of that, but it is priced over the $450 budget.
Maybe his Uncle could throw in $50!
Wow - thanks for the leads! Uncle has already given him a shotgun and case of ammunition, set of binoculars, several hundred dollars worth of his grandfather’s fishing equipment and lots of advice this fall. 😃😃😃. I wish he wasn’t three hours away. His dad is my sister’s ex-husband who I guided on a bunch of deer hunts and fishing. I’m thankful that Daniel has a strong interest in both of those things, plus curiosity about reloading. He’s got a job and is very frugal and budget minded so he can buy his hunting and fishing stuff. He’s not blowing it on video games and stupidity.
