Is CRT Down the Drain?

I've been away from the20 caliber world for awhile....I found about 100 of their 37gr bullets in my stash, and checked the web for more.

No sign of CRT (Custom Reloading Tools)....have they gone tits up and I missed it?

Thanks,

George

1-10 Twist for 55gr Berger?

Can I expect my 1-10 twist 204 ruger to stabilize a Berger 55gr bullet?

Seems marginal to me...but curious if anyone has had experience in this area.

Thanks.

Re: last Shoot of 18, maybe

Very nice report and pics....always makes me jealous of you folks living near small squirrel/rodent critters and/or groundhogs. 🙄

Loaded Round Neck Diameter Question

I'm getting back to reloading for the .204 after a lengthy period of time devoted to 6BRX, 6.5 Creedmoor and .243 Win....and would appreciate some feedback on what size neck bushing you folks are using, and the diameter of loaded rounds. Measuring some of my loaded rounds from a few years ago, I fin...

Re: Hornady 45gr Spire Point Ammo Velocity

cshooter: thanks for the response.....

I'll load some and see how they shoot.....I know I''m losing some velocity because of my 20" barrel but I wouldn't have expected it to be that much.

Hornady 45gr Spire Point Ammo Velocity

I was at the range today testing some loads, and decided to put some of Hornday's 45gr Spire Point ammo thru the chronograph, since I was using it with some of my rounds. I've got some of the bullets, and have been thinking about loading some. I've never hunted coyotes with them, but think it might ...

My .204R Ruger AR

The lower is a RRA with Magpul grip and ACS buttstock, and the upper is one my gunsmith put together for me. The upper and scope are Duracoated in "Magpul Foliage Green." The barrel is a Shilen 20" 1 in 9 twist that I found on Gunbroker. We used a Daniel Defense upper receiver and han...

Re: Issue with CFE223

Interesting report....thanks for sharing....

Although powders such as CFE223 and IMR8208 have come along recently, I'm still finding outstanding results with Reloader 10X....

Just a thought,
