Hi guys, just starting to reload for the 204 and all my loading books are old editions. can anyone suggest a good book for the 204. None of my books have any 204 info. I like Nosler. Also can anyone tell me if the 32gr.hornady vmax is a flate base bullet. Thanks for any help guys.

I've got all the recent manuals on my shelf, including the Nosler No.8, which is a bit on the conservative side regarding the 204. Lots of powders listed with loading densities too.....a very nice feature. If you go to the Loads section at the top of the page, you'll find lots of loads from all the major bullet makers manuals.

The Hornady 32gr VM is a flat-base bullet.

I don't bother buying new load manuals just go to the powder company's web site and print off the data i need. The last load book i bought was obsolete shortly after i got it with new cartridges comming out.
