Re: Coyote hunting with the .204...
My hunting partners and I shoot 30 to 40 coyotes a year. Most with the .204 cartridge. The only issue you may run into using any of the 32 gr poly tipped bullets is a "splash" on shoulders. A splash occurs when the bullet "blows up" before penetrating adequately. This will cause ...

Re: 35 gr bergers OR 40 gr hornady v-max
It depends on what you're going to be using your .204 to shoot. As stated before, the Bergers are THE choice for coyotes. They generally don't exit minimizing sewing. They are also very accurate. The 35 gr Bergers are one of the most accurate bullets I've fired out of six different .204's. The only ...

Re: 22 CAL 40 grain Berger's
HJ: As V2 mentioned the load I was using was over 4000 fps. I didn't have time to chrono them untill after I had used them on a few 'yotes.

race: I feel their pain.... The bad news is that it's a common problem. The good news is that it's easily fixed. After struggling with the same thing in my M93, I simply took a pair of pliers and bent the upper lip of the clip inward slightly and....problem solved. It took very little to stop the pr...
