Reloader 22

Re: Reloader 22
This is from Alliants website: "This top-performing powder for big game loads provides excellent metering, and is the powder of choice for .270, 7mm magnum and .300 Win Mag."
I would never use powder designed for magnum cartridges in the 204.

You would get no velocity, no sustainable accuracy and a whole lot of black sludge in the barrel.
Probably turn the action black from blowby also.
I once tried W-760 and thats much too slow.
