Best powder for 204 ruger???

[gcfd360]

Whats your guys best powder to load with a 204 ruger??

 

[OldTurtle]

Winchester 748 and Ramshot X-Terminator with Sierra 39 BlitzKings and magnum primers...Works in both my AR and my CZ 527 Varmint...Powder charges between .4gr and .7gr below published max load..

 

[Hunter Gatherer]

I like RL10x but alot of different powders work well in mine.

 

[Copper Q Tip]

25gr.Benchmark under a 40gr. Berger makes little clover leafs in my Kimber. And dead doggies!

 

[Sandhills yote]

I'm having good luck with BL-C2 and 35 gr bergers.

 

[skidooracer_99]

27.7 of benchmark with a 32g hornady v-max is the best ive found to date.

 

[savage99]

Mine shot very well with BL-C2 and 32 grain pills.

 

[1up5down]

27.6gr. of Benchmark behind a 32gr. Blitzking works real well out of my Sabre Defence 204 AR.

 

[Ricky Bobby]

Ramshot XTerminator for me!

Meters like a dream, burns clean, kills like a laser beam!

 

[Jay Cummings]

If you look on 204R.com you will quickly see that H4895 is a powder that seems to work in alot of rifles as well as 10x. The very first loads I tried in my 204 was with 4895 and 3 five shot groups averaged in the .4's. Never tried anything else. I am pushing the 39gr Sierra 3850fps.

 

[StinkPickle]

mine shoots good with Alliant 2015

 

[280fan]

Tac works for me. 28.5 behind 32 V-Max.

 

[jsc]

H-4895

 

[nr123]

Benchmark

 

[morton]

V-135 39gr sierra

 

[terrace]

27.5 Benchmark ,in cooper and ruger

 

[hawkeye reloader]

I ran 8 powders and 2 bullets through my new custom 204 last fall. The best combination was 10x and the 39 SBK. Every gun is different. My group was good enough to quit load development.
Powders tried
10x, 748, 335, 4895, Benchmark, Varget, 322, 2230
Bullets
39 Sierra Blitzking
40 Hornady V-Max
