Hi there. I,m fairly new to the 204 cal! Just wondering about my target turrets on my Leupold 6-20 , my loads is a 32gr vmax running at 4200fps , I have the turret dialed in on 0 for a 100 meters 0. Any idea how many clicks I will have to dial up for say 150m 200m 250m 300m and 350 if possible. scop...

Re: Tell me about primers!

Thanks Guys!, putting my mind at ease . As I was experiencing a few flat primers with cci400s In the next round of reloads, I think I,ll use cci br4s, as being a bench rest primer they must be more constant from shot to shot. I still have some winchester,s I would rather not waste, Hopefully these w...

Re: First 204 (wee bit different -suppressor)

Re: Most EXPLOSIVE projectile

Ive tried a handful of varmint grenades, but didn't really give them a fair go as my first 5 reloads with these were about 2 inch groups. also I thought begin only 26 grain , they must lack the punch after say 100m , Any ideas on this? Surely the lack of weight must hinder performance pass 100. also...

Most EXPLOSIVE projectile

Hi. I know I,m probably opening up a can of worm here, but I would be interested to hear which is the most explosive projectile. A sierra 32 blitz king or the 32 vmax pushed at about 4000 -4200 as both seem to be just about as accurate as each other in my reloads. thanks
