Evidently you have the internet. I would use the net to find whatever you are looking for, including brass. There are hundreds if not thousands of suppliers that have what you are looking for. Personally I would start by checking with Brad at CRT, one of the sponsors of this site. His add is at the top of this forum. Good guy to deal with ;)

We would typically have Winchester 204 brass in stock. However all the distributors have been out of it for the last 4 months and Winchester doesn't seem to be manufacturing more at this time. I expect to see it available again in a couple months. Currently the only 204 Ruger brass that is readily available is Nosler. We do have a few boxes of the Nosler in stock if you would be interested. email or give us a call. email: sales@customreloadingtools.com or phone: 260-225-4400

Thanks,

The Nosler Pro Shop has plenty of WW 204 brass on the shelf. Go online and check it out. I also saw WW 204 brass at our local Wholesale Sports store too.....it's around, you just have to ferret it out. Online would be the ticket....SPS has a website, and ships UPS....... :chin:

RIO, sssshhh on the Nosler SPS :) They're my number one supplier of .224, 6mm, .25, and .30 cal bullets! I buy 2nd's brass too and have yet to see why it's labeled that way.

Anyway, Sportsman's Warehouse in Lexington, KY had 3 bags of Win 204 brass last time I was there. They didn't have any after I checked out. Maybe it's available online from them?

Hope you found some. Powder Valley has Hornady and Nosler brass in stock www.powdervalleyinc.com more expensive of course.
I had the same problem with .22-250, but Natchez had a stock so picked up a supply.

Bad news for those of us waiting for the Winchester brass. I just received a call from Winchester/Olin and they are not scheduling to run 204 brass till after July that is all the further their crystal ball sees so in reality they are not even scheduled yet. The reason given is they are tens of millions behind producing .223 .222 and the 5.56, they use the same machinery as .204 and the back order for them is "only 174,000". I let them know that they should take care of customers better and that if it was a Winchester cartridge developed by them it would not be an issue. Being a life long UE member I told them the answer to the problem is buy more equipment and hire some people. So not looking good.
