Re: 204 sugestions

Hey Drafty and Dr G, No offence taken at all i'm used to getting the same response to 2208 in the 204. As for acccuracy I have just seen a ten shot .2 group at 100 yards from an old mate that bought a T3 Super varmint in 204. I had to give him some of my loaded rounds to try and convince him that 22...

Re: 204 sugestions

Hey trevort,
Only my observation on the 204 and 39gn bk's. I load 28.8 grains with moly coated bullets in the Tikka's.

Re: 204 sugestions

Hey Drafty,
Save yourself some money on the Remi and buy the T3 in L/H, top it off with a Bushnell Elite 6500 4.5-30 x 50 mil dot for only a little more than the Remi. Get some 39gn Sierra Blitz Kings and 2208 and go to rabbit town.

Re: Frustrating 204

Thanks for the low profile Kjd. And they did shoot ok, better without moly. Hey Glen, You could go a faster powder but as you know its up to your gun. I know of another guy that uses 2207 and it also shoots. Mate your only talking about 10mm at 300 yards between 3800fps and 4000fps with the V-max's ...

Re: Frustrating 204

Hey mate, You will find that the same load you use will shed some velocity but more importantly a lot less pressure and copper fouling meaning less cleaning in the rabbit patch. Ive seen a 22/250 Ackley shooting uncoated bullets missing rabbits at 50yards after 200 shots and another one shooting coa...

Re: Frustrating 204

No typo mate the 204 case should hold about 29.5 grains of 2208 to the shoulder. The load is for my rifle only and I WOULD NOT ADVISE USING IT WITH UNCOATED BULLETS. You may find other moly users all starting around maximum loads. When starting it is advisable to moly wipe your barrel before testing...

Re: Frustrating 204

Hi ogre6br, Built my first one before they where in the country in known makes it was a 1 in 10 twist on a sako action that gave me issues with the V-max's as they where the only ones i could get in at the time. The old mind set of get em to the lands was an issue and still is in most sako and tikka...

Re: Frustrating 204

Hey Larry, On my fourth 204 its a L/H Tikka T3. As mentioned in other comments most 1 in 12 twists wont shoot the 40grain v-max, some shoot the nosler ok but the 39 sierra's work well if you can get them at the moment. I have 2500 of them on order. Don't be scared to try 2208 i have used it in all m...

Re: Things that shit me off

Do you want me to reload you some 223's you know you will need at least 2-3 hundred which will ensure you hit at least 20 or so. Oh thats right you can't come. Might have to take some...
