Re: P-dogs in Colorado

There is a season on prairie dogs in Colorado and it was over the end of February.

Private land is year round. You will have to find access to private land.

Re: Shooting Advice and Technique

I have had similar experiences where I could just not understand how I missed shots. I know the gun and have faith in our capability to make the shot and nothing happened. I have convinced myself that I have hit twigs early in the bullets flight. This was from shooting prone with a bipod. The shots ...

Re: Super accurate factory 204? Your opinions?

I believe that a Tikka or CZ 204 would fill the bill for you. Both are very accurate rifles and both have easily adjustable triggers. I have heard good things about Savage accuracy, but have no personal experience. I recently purchased a CZ 527 American in 204 Ruger and it is extremely accurate. I h...

Re: 204 case trimming preferences

Thanks to all!
I have gleaned good info and will make an informed decision now.
I might have to wait for my next paycheck to justify it though.

I will do my best to keep trim in 2010!

I looked at their site and it didn't look like 204 Ruger was supported. I might get one for my .223 Bushmaster Varminter though.

Re: 204 case trimming preferences

You are both confirming my direction... I bought the Forster BR dies and was considering the Forster case trimmer. Found this on Midway. Is this what you would recommend? I don't want to buy the wrong one. The description does not indicate that you could optionally use a cordless drill on the unit. ...

204 case trimming preferences

What do most people on this site use for trimming cases on their 204s? I have been getting by with using the Lee hand trimmers for all my other calibers, but haven't seen the 204 Lee hand trimmer available. I won't be doing any high volume trimmer usage and I have .224, .277, .284 and .308 cals as w...
