RE: Anybody using the Ruger .204
I have been shooting the 204 ruger for a little over a year now and i am very well pleased.The cartridge has plenty of knockdown for yotes and is extremely flat shooting.I shoot a 38 grain hornady handload and my farthest shot on a yote has been 354 yards stopped the dawg dead in his tracks.Although on close range shots sometimes passes through so fast it doesnt expand as well,but that ,may just be my load.

Who is offering a 38 gr. bullet, what type of bullet?
I'm lovin' my .204 AR. The more I use it, the more I like it. I'm currently shooting the 40 gr. berger bullets, and they are performing very well on coyotes.

Howler - What kind of groups you getting the the 40gr Bergers? I've heard quite a few guys complain they can't get the heavier stuff to shoot well. One of my coyote calling buddies is getting a 204 and we are looking for a good starting load for dogs. My dads business partner is also getting one, and wants me to load for him as well. I have no real world experience with one yet.
