These are a couple of pics looking for a load using 2206h in my cz527 kevlar varmint in 204 . First pic is four shots using 39 gr sbk , 1st shot on a cold barrel
Other pic was 10 shots using 2206h using 32 gr z max seated to magazine length , 1st shot was 27.6 gr going up in .2 grain increments till a max of 29.4 grain which was slightly over max on adi data , but appeared fine in my rifle .
Seems pretty temperamental ! Not !! Just fill the case , tip out the neck , seat a projectile and shoot the thing !

Still got one, but hardly use it since I got my 20 vt.
It does nearly everything I want in a 20 cal and if that's not enough I skip the 204 and go straight to the 20/250.
Gotta love those 20 cals.

Nice stuff.
I was told when I first got my 204 that some people were having trouble getting accuracy out of their hand loads that was even close to factory. It didn't to take me Long to find out that was BS!.
Mine shoots 32 V max real nice 40's are ok I think on the edge of stability maybe. Finally got to try some 39 SBK's they shoot great no hype there that's for sure. I also gave some 35 Bergers a try the other week end and they shot extremely well have not tried them on the furry critters yet. I've been using BR8208 and been happy with.
Can't wait to get the Vartarg built......... Might be a while but I will get there.
All the best and thank for sharing.
