indianaboy Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 I just got a 204 today. 6 shots and it was sighted in. No drop from 50 to 150 yrds. It is the sweetest shooting gun I have ever shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Re: Remington 204! Sweet! I love that caliber, might buy a gun in a .204 sometime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Re: Remington 204! The .204 is getting press as a FLAT long range varmint round. Honestly, ive never shot one. I almost picked one up at a gun show last weekend but I let it go (he didn't want to dicker). From what ive read out past 150, they are still deadly and very flat. Take a look at the trajectory charts below... Those puppy's are bad! Here is a little information from Winchesters website. Rifle Loads X204R Cartridge 204 Ruger Bullet Wt.

captkb44 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Re: Remington 204! Congrats on the new rifle!!!! I have had a .204 for just over 2 years now and absolutely love it. Its deadly past 300 yards and theres rarely much pelt damage. Keep in mind shot placement is essential with this little round. A marginal shot on a coyote might cause you to track one alot farther than you might normally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
