Re: My .204 saga - long...

This site steered me to 10X and 39g Sierras for my CZ and it easily shoots .5 moa across a wide charge weight and seating depth. Great info here and happy you guys sold me on the 204.

Re: 40 gr. Nosler balistic tips for 1 and 12 twist

No personal coyote experience, but alot of guys here seem to like the 35g Bergers for coyotes. The 39 Sierras shoot very well in my CZ. I may try the 35 Bergers but the sub .5moa groups are hard to argue with. The Hornady 32g Vmax factory load shot poorly in comparison, about 1 moa.

Re: Tell us about yourself...

New to this very informative site and thoroughly enjoying developing a load for my new CZ Varmint/Target 204. Wow is all I can say about the consistant sub .5 moa groups from this new toy topped with a VX-III 4.5-14 LR side focus. Today I guess I am settled on 24.5g 10X, 39 SBK, Fed205M, Win brass t...

Clean burning 204 load?

I am ready to reload and am starting with Win. brass, Fed 205M primers, 39gr Sierras and 10X powder. The 10x is a popular powder on this site, but I read a post saying it was the dirtiest powder...not good for extended shooting. Any opinions/suggestions?

Re: Anybody Have The New C-Z Target/Varmint .204?

Forgot to mention CZ said they are back ordered and 15 are going out to distributors this month and 100 next month. I waited 3 or 4 months. I got one of the first 15.

Re: Anybody Have The New C-Z Target/Varmint .204?

New to the site, just picked up a varmint target in 204 last friday. Mounted a 4.5 X 14 Leupold long range and broke the barrel in monday. Shot some groups with factory Hornady 32gr and had sub moa with one group about half inch. Shot from a bipod. Had the rifle at the trap club last night and some ...
