.204 Ruger Guns: TC Encore rifle

New 204

Post by rpbill »

I finaly got some loads ready for my Encore Pro Hunter. I loaded some 40 gr. V-Max with BLC-2 and RL10x. (No, not in the same case :shock: ) For primers I used CCIBR4, WSR, Federal 205M and Rem 7 1/2.
It's supposed to be nice this weekend, maybe I'll get to do some shooting.

Welcome to the Forum.
So your not ready to create your own custom blend gunpowders. I can understand that ;)
What I don't get is how you piggybacked four primers. Crazy Glue? Should be some supermagnum loads :lol:

Nice looking rifle. Have a great weekend!!!

jo191145 - you can piggyback 4 OR 5 primers on the encores....just depends on how far back you pull the trigger!

Nice looking rifle!

The trick is to use 221 Fireball brass. It leaves room for the extra primers. :idea:

Actually I should have said a .20 VarTarg case. The bullets fit tighter and still leave room for the extra primers.
