Re: How to start Hnad loading

We have a Dillan dealer here in Sask, his name is Doug Rainer and he runs "Rainer Shine gunworks" and is located near Leader Sk. Great fellow to deal with and has pretty good prices, he also deals in rifles so maybe you'll come home with a Dilan progressive and a new varmint gun :D Cheers!!

Re: How to start Hnad loading

Im up in Sask as well :D I don't think you're going to save much when you take into the cost of completly setting yourself up to reload with quailty reloading components. The one thing you will gain is the abililty to tailor a load to your rifle and load bullets which you can't find in a factory box...

Re: Is the 204 enough as a full time coyote gun.

I use the .204 as my main coyote rig. I usually take about 5 coyotes a week with it and would not reccomend using the 32 gr. V-Max unless you take shots under 150, past this I seem to get runners. Ive finally got some 35 gr. Bergers loaded up and from what I hear they are really good.

Whats the go to powder??

Ive just started reloading for my .204 and am wondering what seems to be the best powder? Im loading up some 35 gr. Bergers and 39 Sierra BK's. The powder I purchsed was H322 and Benchmark but both seem to be used more on 32gr bullets vs the heavier weights.
Im shooting a Remington LVSF.

Cheers!!
