204 RCBS dies and brass- 243 RCBS dies

I have a set of RCBS 204 dies. The adjustment cap on the seater die has plier marks, done before I got them. This doesn't affect the function at all. Also have 66 pieces of mixed brass. Brass is twice fired. Will take 45.00 shipped USPS priority mail in lower 48. Can take Paypal gift with my wife's ...

Re: Bushnell 4X12 recticle?

A Leupold would be great but I don't have enough money to buy one. A Bushnell trophy, for about half of what a Leupold cost, is going to be about it. Don

Bushnell trophy 4X12 recticle?

I need a scope for my 204 and would love a Leupold but I just don't have the money. I am considering a Bushnell 4X12 with AO. The Simmons I have on the rifle now works but the recticle is way to thick. How thick is the recticle on the Bushnell. Thanks, Don

Re: First day with H&R ultra varmint 204, a little disappointing

I went to the range today. I stopped and got a plastic washer and an O rings as suggested on GBO. I installed the washer and it wasn't enough to get the barrel floated so I put the O ring in it also. Stringing problem gone. I don't think the gun likes the varmint nightmares or the Benchmark powder b...

Foxpro over 200.00 more than Preymaster?

I was looking at callers today and noticed the FoxPro is 399.00 and the Preymaster is 189.00. Does the Foxpro have over 200.00 worth of extra features. Don

First day with H&R ultra varmint 204, a little disappointing

Took the ultra varmint 204 out today. Had some hand loads with varmint nightmare bullets and 25. 6 and 26.4 grains of Benchmark. Cleaned the gun after every 5-10 shots. Trigger was a little better than I figured it would be, but groups were dismal. Got a lot of vertical stringing with the 25.6 loads...

Stupid move, need help.

I just started reloading again after several years. I have been very frugle buying reloading equipment. I have bought mostly used items and most have worked well. I bought a set of 270 dies and when I received, the resizing die turned out to be a neck sizing die. I sized a case and tried it in my ne...

Re: Maxium load for Benchmark, I'm confused!

Well, I just got finished loading about 40 with 25.4 grains of Benchmark and 40 with 26.4 grains of Benchmark. I will shoot the 25.4 grain tomorrow and if all is well, I'll try the 26.4 grain and check the first one real well. Don

Maxium load for Benchmark, I'm confused!

I am going to use some Benchmark and 34 grain varmint nightmares to load for my NEF ultra varmint in 204 tomorrow. I am using once fired Hornady cases, Remington 7 1/2 BR primers. Hodgdon lists 26.6 grains of Benchmark as maxium for a 35 grain bullet and 28.0 grains for a 32 grain bullet. I noticed ...
