Update 204 loads
« on: March 10, 2011, 04:01:52 AM »
Well I glass bedded the forearm stock and also bedded the breach of my 204 Ruger…last time at the range it did ~2.6” at 200 yards and yesterday it did 1.6” at 200.  I got the best accuracy at 26.6 and 27 grains of Varget with a Sierra 39 grain Blitzking.

I plan to go back to the range on Saturday and try 27.0, 27.3, 27.5, 27.8, 28 and 28.2 of Varget. I am pleased with 1.6” at 200 yards especially since I haven't touched the trigger yet, and it is hard holding it on target with the hard pull.

I did differently than others and did not float the barrel in the forearm.  I planned to float it if this didn't help but since the Hand responded so well I plan on leaving it as is.

Is there a way to delete this thread?  I added my reply to my other thread and wanted to delete this but now I don't know how to delete it...

Thanks
