Default RE: Got me a 204

Congrats on your 204!

I picked one up a few months ago and and pleasantly surprised. Midway and Cabelas almost always have .204 in stock. New cases, at least from Hornady, will not be available until 2006. I bought 10 boxes each of the .32 and .40 and thus have an excellent supply of brass.

I have a Ruger .204 M77 compact and had reservations about the thin barrel, but have no regrets now. At 200 yds I can still keep groups under an inch. People that know alot more about building rifles than I do, have made the statement that since the caliber is so new, the tooling should produce extremely accurate rifles.

The guys over on the AR forum - Varmint Hunting, have some great reports and loading info, if you are interested.

Good luck with your .204!
