I may have some 204 brass for sale.  Got a bunch of it laying around.  PM me if interested


Will say the 204 is a hoot to shoot.  I haven't used mine in awhile but took it out last night and killed 8 dogs in a few hours.  It's common to not be able to tell where you hit them, but I hold for the middle of the shoulder.
We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

I was able to get a ruger American predator in 204. It shoots 40grain vmax pretty awesome. I have been out a few times calling dogs but none have come in yet. I'm looking forward to Seing its performance, thanks for all the posts guys

i shot a coyote with mine last year at about 100 yards. i shoot the 32 grain bullet and the dog wasnt a huge dog probably 12-15lbs it still folded to the ground with a literal butt shut. i blew a hole in his real end and threw his legs sideways lol. i love the gun. yes less knockdown than a 22 250 but very similar ballistics and its a laser. hit a crow at 346 yards once and held about 7 inches high when sighted for 200.

I shot my CZ American the other day w/39 Gr BK.  Good Lord it is accurate.  I think I will shoot it more this year than I have been lately.
