Lets see them droptine bucks

[Red Dawg]

very nice deer and tell us a little more about that caliber. That sounds like a cool one.

It's a straight neck up of the 204 Ruger which is based on a Improved 222 Rem Mag case.  It has about as much capacity as you can get out of small base (.378) case with out trying to find rare Euro brass (5.56x50mm) or doing alot of case forming.  The 25-204 matches factory ballistics for the 250-3000 Savage which has a proven track record as a game taker.  It is a little long for an AR or CZ 527.

Ballistics:

75gr-3150fps

85/87gr-3000fps

100gr-2800fps

I like the cartridge so well That I've built a 22-204 and a 6mm-204.  They have turned out to be great little cartridges.  There is no need for custom dies I load all three with a Redding 204 Ruger FL Bushing die just change out the bushing and expander ball, I did have to open the neck opening in the die to clear the 25 cal neck.  I use Hornady seating dies in the correct bullet diameter as Hornadys seaters are pretty much universal.

Here is a droptine Washington Whitetail that my dad arrowed back in 1995.  It officially scored 165 4/8" P&Y non-typical.

Dang chad both you and your dads bucks are hogs. Where's the secret honey hole?

[jackelope]

always thought a drop tine dropped off the main beam and when they come off the g-points they are kickers or stickers or cheaters or something along those lines.
not thaty it matters i guess...just thinking out loud.
