COR-BON now sells ammo in .204 using a 26gr Varmint Grenade. The also have a .223 50gr VG. This stuff is available in Bakersfield at Ole Boy Outdoors and they are advertisers on this list. I picked up a couple of boxes of each, but haven't tried either yet. I wasn't impressed with their .243 stuff, but others love it including the store owner. Twenty-six gr seems a bit small, but a lot of guys on Coyote Gods swear that a 25gr lead bullet in a .17 Rem is plenty. WooI wonder if they would load .204 Ruger and how much - maybe I'll email them to see.

You need to be very careful shooting the hevier bullets in non lead. They may be to long and will not shoot good. Give us a call and we can answer all your question.
