Hey all! I could not wait 12-16 weeks for a custom upper in Ruger .204. So today I acquired a complete DPMS AR15 heavy stainless 24" barrel in the Ruger .204. I plan to reload. Do any of you have any suggestions as to the ideal reload for this caliber and AR configuration? I plan on trying the 40 grain Berger bullet since my goal is to shoot varmints from 300-600 yards. I do know that with this heavier bullet I will not achieve the 4000 fps velocity but bullet stability downrange is what I want. Not saying that I can hit a prairie dog at 600 yards but I want the best reload capable for this range. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! |

Have you tried posting this in the AR Reloading Forum They might be able to give you some good info there. A non-AR15.com forum with good .204 info is .204 forum I bought a NEF .204 last year but haven't even got it to the range yet. I really thought about an AR upper but for the money and very limited shooting, I just couldn't justify that |
