Re: trouble with reloads
I have a Remington 700 SPS in 204 that shots the Hornady factory loaded 40gr Vmax very accurately. I'm going to reaload both the 40gr Vmax and Sierra 39Gr BK using IMR 8208, which was the powder recommended by a Hodgdon rep.

IMR 8208 powder
I'm getting ready to start reloading my for 204 (Remmy 700SPS). I called Hodgdon for a recommendation and they said IMR 8208 would work very well for 204 Ruger. Does anyone have any experience with this powder?
