Who all shoots a .204 ruger

[bowhunterforever]

Just curious who all shoots a .204 ruger and what your favorite bullet for yotes and bobs?
 I shoot a ruger mkII ultralight. Right now i'm shooting 32gr v-max.I haven't had any issue with these bullets but haven't shot a yote past 300 yard with them yet.

[509er]

Ruger ultralite allweather.  Either 32 grn vmax or 40 grn vmax. depends on what I can find.

Remington VTR. Same bullets as 509er. I have had better luck with 40 grain latelty.

i bought a .204 2 weeks ago just to have something to mess around with. its a single shot New England and holy crap can that thing shoot!!!. after i got it sighted in the first 3 shots i had at 100 yrds were in the same hole!!! i was blown away!! i took it all the way to 500 yrds and was hitting the inside the rim of a paper plate everytime! its a tack driver. im using 32 grain vmax

I've thought several time about getting a .204 upper but .....just can't justify it.  I'd love to have one one day.

My go-to is a Cooper Montana Varminter .204 w/ 40 grain V-max.

Me too!! I can justify it but just bought a Muzzy, a .243, and another .260. Don't think mama would be happy if I bought yet another toy. BTW there is a .204 upper for sale on Predatormasters classifieds.

I really wish you hadn't done that!!!!   

.204 uses the same mags, correct?

[Gutpile]

Same bolt too? Say it isn't so. You may have just got me in trouble. Got an extra room for me to stay for a week or three?

Let me know maybe I can get some vacation and we could shoot some dogs. 


Yep, Actually all you would really need to do is replace the barrel and a new bolt face on a .223. But it's usually better to just get a complete upper. The reason for a new bolt face is just so the new barrel and bolt face lugs mates up, You can use the existing bolt face but the wear pattern wouldn't match.

Picked up a CZ 527 Varmint Kevlar about a month ago.  It's a shooter.  Been shooting 32gr v-max but have some 40gr v-max loads ready for the range.

The 40's show about the same trajectory as the 32's on the ballistics calculator.

Damn you!! Well since it looks like I'll be starting work early this year I'll probably hold off. Can't believe the fun is almost over. Maybe next year. $450.00 is easier to swallow than $700.00 + though.

i have shot them and all the ones i shot realy likes the 40g vmax.
