Going from memory they shot 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" at 100yds out of my 700ADL. The ES was somewhere around 125fps. I shot four 5 shot groups & this is what I got. I used the other box on groundhogs & it ripped em up real nice.

Two of my 204's won't shoot them for crapola, but they shoot quite well in a friend's Rem M700 204...go figure.

Matter of fact, I gave all mine to him to shoot ground squirrels just so he'd shoot them up so I could have my WW brass back for reloading.

Glenn & Rick, thanks for that, think i'll give it a miss although it sounded good in theory.KB

It pained me greatly giving back the brass. However finding out what to feed my .204 by random chance made my day. Now as I'm collecting brass that is all that I shoot out of my Rem700 BDL VLS. I've got it on paper showing 1/2" groups just about every time if I do my part. Maybe I just got the luck of the draw. Like I told Rick "good, more for me on the shelves!"
