Welcome to the forum! I haven't been on here very long but has grown to be one of my favorites. Lots of good info! Hope you find it as informative as I do! Happy shooting.

Cool. I have been wanting to get one just haven't yet cause I surely don't have the skills to judge the wind correctly.

Do you judge wind speed yourself or have a wind meter? Haven't been able to watch the video yet since I'm on my phone and have terrible signal.

It is a 1.75x6 power VX-3. It's a little under powered but it's doing the trick for now. Once more funds roll my way I will probably upgrade.

Ok so here is my only load so far.
Remington brass, fully prepped
CCI-BR 4 primers
H4895
28.3 gr charge
35 gr Bergers
3900 fps
=
.360 groups

Try this, plug your data in and down near the bottom you should be able to change from yards to meters.

http://i1240.photobucket.com/albums/gg489/boisblancboy/bullets.jpg Well proud to say those brand new remington .204 cases are a beautiful sight because they were the last batch to get fully prepped, primer pocket uniformed, neck turned, full length sized, trimmed, debured, chamfered and tumbled! No...

I've used a call shot gunning them. When I'm sniping them I just hunt over a carcass or what have you.

They are smart there is no doubt about it! Well now that I have my .204 and I have her shooting well I am going to try like heck to see if I can bring some of their numbers down but that's if I can hit the darn things. Either way it will be fun trying.

I just read an article, in short, more crows killed helps the waterfowl population increase. I found that interesting since I'm an avid waterfowler. But I'll take just about any excuse to get out and hunt/shoot.

I agree first and foremost shot placement but let's face it, no matter how good you are you will end up with a marginal shot. With that said I always believed in shooting the heaviest bullet I could that gave me the ballistics I was looking for. Your chances of recovery are greater with a heavier bu...

I agree with Bill, that's pretty much what I did when searching for a load with my 35 bergers. Started at the bottom and working up .2 at a time with 3 shot groups. You should discover an accuracy node or two. From those nodes load above and below(as long as your not at max load) .1. This should giv...

Very nice you got to be happy with that. After the outting make sure you post us up some pics!

Nice piece! Before I got my remmy I also picked up a ruger #1 that had a grey laminated stock, beautiful gun, but I couldnt get myself past that tang off the back of the trigger guard. Just did care for that. I cant believe how much fun the .204 is to shoot. Make sure to report back on how she shoots.

600 away is a long shot! I just missed one this morning at 200. Mad at myself for that!
