I have recently switched powder to H4198 and seen a marked improvement in accuracy in five shot groups. I would have flyers with 10X and switching the powder eliminated those. Velocity with a 32 gr. bullet is right at 3985 extremely fun to shoot and accurate now. Very pleased.

Sounds like Rick may have a good thought. Between the 20 Practical, 204 Ruger, and the 20 Vartarg they are starting to add up. Would be more inclusive and should generate more chats and traffic.

Well I got the upper in and a scoped mounted. Went to the range and I am rather impressed with the new upper… Shot 6 different test loads in .5 gr. increments with Reloder 10X and the worst group was just a hair over 1 inch at 100 yards and the best was .37 inches. The action cycles smooth and has a...

I hope my got there…. Mailed it back over a month ago.

I have decided to go with the 20 practical as my next build… I have on order an Uintah Precision AR bolt action upper with a 24” barrel and a 1:11 twist.

I do not disagree with either of you… That’s why I have two of each….20 VT and 221 fireball.

Looks like the 20 Practical wins!!! Think of get a bolt action AR upper.

Target shot and in the mail back to Skipper. Will have to see how it stacks up.

Looking for new caliber to try out. Let’s start with what I have… 204 Ruger, 20 VT, 22 Hornet, 221 Fireball, 223 Rem, 224 Valkyrie, 22-250, 243 Win and 6x45. All of them are bolt actions. I really prefer the small cases with light recoil compared to the 22-250 and 243. I was thinking of maybe trying...

I can’t wait to get the target and a calm wind day. Thanks again Skipper!

Info sent and thanks again Skipper

Update…. I got the rifle back from Cooper and started my load development. Using H335 powder and Bart’s 68 gr. Ultimate bullets to start. I have some 80 gr. Dominators on order, but I figure they will be a long time coming due to component shortages. So far it looks very good. Best group .202 moa an...

I would be in for 2022…. Could do either 100 or 200 yards.
