I bought the magnetospeed a few months ago and really like it. I like the fact that you can install it right at your shooting bench without stopping or bothering anyone. Velocity matches up real close to my buddy's 35. Made in Austin, Texas I believe. Jim D

Thanks, for sharing that tidbit. I have an old Chrony Beta Master and was considering upgrading to the Oehler but now I will have to reconsider. I'm glad you shared that information. I like the idea of being able to set it up right there at the bench. Too many ranges will not let you set one up because of the interruption and safety concerns.

.204 Ruger Guns: T/C Dimension

Re: .204 Ruger velocities?

T/C Dimension, 22" barrel. Elevation 5650 ft. 26.3 gr. IMR 4064. 35 gr. Berger bullet. CCI 450 primers Rem. brass. 3284 fps. Most groups are in the .2 range. I'm happy to use the IMR 4064 as I now have made up some very accurate loads with it from 308- 30-30 223 243 204. Now making up a load using the 39 gr. Sierras. I havent taken the 35 bergers coyote hunting yet but I expect good results. Have taken several coyotes with the factory Rem. 40 gr accu tips and they have performed just great. All have passed thru the varmit's but not much pelt damage at all.

had Tac 20 for years) and would like to see more answers to the OP, PLEASE!
