This 3 shot 100 yard group speaks for itself, as I used the 32-gr Hornady V Max factory loads for testing. The Handi Rifle was benched in a Caldwell lead sled for stable shooting.

Load development right out of the box! :D

That's great. I think you're pretty well dialed in...

I contacted the previous owner of this barrel, and he had shot it some. He said he shot his groups with a bipod instead of being rested in a rest like a Caldwell lead sled and obtain simalar groups but not as tight. We have a gun show this weekend here, and I'm going to be looking for just 204 Ruger componants. I got my dies, and now I need brass, powder, pimers and some .20 cal cleaning stuff.
