Does anyone have Loads for the 26 grain Barnes Varmit Grenade in .204?? They are very new to the market in .204 ruger, I have a box of 100 but did not know where to start?

i had the same problem so i called barnes . they sead to use the loads for the 32gr bullets
as the bearing surface was very colse to that of most 40gr bullets . it worked for me an i get 4235 fps with benchrest (27.6)grs an a std cci primer . it shoots real good out of my savage
12lpss. i just got it about a month ago an only shot about 100 rounds through it so far.
i`m going to chang primers to see what happens next .oh by the way seat your bullets out so they are in .204 an things start looking good .imr 4198 is good also over 4000 . i hope that helps .
