Nice shootin' Guy. I know there are cartridges with higher velocities, that are flatter shooting, having less recoiling and harder hitting rounds than the 30-06 but the ole' gal still gets it done and IMO is probably the most versatile hunting cartridge there is. Nice pictures and thanks for sharing...

Rick...it won't be soon enough for spring, it's snowing at my house right now.

I would agree about the name change. There are a lot more 20-cals in the game now than there was when I joined [20 Practical, 20 Tactical, 20 SCC, 20-222, 20-250 and I'm sure more are out there I haven't mentioned]. For me, I have three 204 Rugers and don't plan on parting with any of them anytime s...

I bought myself a VP9 a couple of years back and I really like it. The only negative part about it and H&K in general is some of the components are on the spendy side but then again, that's an old news-flash. At the time I also procured a CZ P10C so both of those are quite comparable with each o...

JW, I tried the 55gr BT in both my 243 Win and my 243AI. Blistering speeds, but mediocre accuracy. The terminal effect on PD's and squirrels was remarkable as would be assumed though. Worth a try, but doubtful they will become part of a coveted "Pet Load". Your fndings may differ, but tha...

They are great little rifles. My first 204 was a 204, i still have it and I haven't had anyone that's shot it not made me an offer to buy it.

Well bud, they're either in the fields shootin' rats or [hopefully not like me---] working.

I ended up getting a factory modified bolt handle to clear the scope eyepiece, otherwise it looks the same.

Checked out anew gun store yesterday and walla, on the shelve was a CZ527 American in 204R. Gave it a going over and looked good and the price was really good, with how it is, so the paper work is in the over, so to speak. Will pick it up in around ten days and then will give it a take down, cleani...

Heck, if it gets to dang expensive, I'll have to retire because I won't be able to afford to go drive to work

I had a similar problem with mine not locking back with my AR-10's I put together that ended being a receiver issue. In my case, the problem would move when swapping receivers amongst the two I had at the time. One thing different though mine would cycle and pick up rounds. Since the problem tends t...

Rick, Did you experience any temp sensitivity with the N133? You are absolutely right about the skyrocketing prices of reloading consumables...and everything else we buy now. But I believe that expensive and accurate hand loaded ammo is the least and last thing I can do for Skippy. LOL!! The one th...

I've thoroughly enjoyed mine it's one of the best investments in reloading gear I've ever made.

Well fiddlesticks I hate to hear that.

Jim, I would not be selling this scale if I didn't have already have an M5 and a 10-10 scale. Both new old stock, never used when I bought them. Finding these excellent scales new/unused is like hens teeth now. I think the better electronic scales are great, but you better have something to check t...
