Need some .204 loads

[viking499]

For those of you reloading for the 204, what is your powder and bullet of choice? Which gun?

I can make a rifle suggestion, the Savage Model 12 Varmint.

I have my reloading components on order, and have about pulled the trigger on a CZ 527 Varmint in .204.

I have researched this ad nauseum, and I keep coming back to the CZ. Runner up was the 700 VLS.

I am starting with some H322 and some IMR 8208 XBR I have some low 30 gr and some mid 30 gr bullets coming in, too.

Good luck.

I have a CZ American that has potential. Just need a cheaper way to go than factory ammo.

This is my load. It has taken crows, groundhogs, raccoons, coyotes and even a deer. Accuracy in my Contender carbine has been excellent. One of the crows was taken at over 300 yards and the deer at 252 yards.

I have a Savage Model 12 and an AR-15 in 204 Ruger.

My current load is a 40 grain V-max or 39 grain Blitzking using CFE223.
