Default RE: What do you think of 204 Ruger? for a varmint rifle

ORIGINAL: ColoradoElk

I shoot the .204 ALOT and IMHO you should purchase a .204 if yotes are your largest quarry and you like to reload,
Well I don't have the components to reload, but the person I hunt with (girl friend's dad) does. I know he reloads 243, so I doubt he'd have a problem with me helping load some 204. From what I read I might have to buy some new tools that are small enough to fit the 20cal neck, but I'm willing to do that. I also like the 204 because from what I read, it is easy on the barrel and with little recoil makes it easier to hold on target after pulling the trigger.

I wish I wouldn't have bought my 22mag because buying the 204 would make an overlap of things to shoot. hmmm such a tough decision for a person on a college student budget.
