All,
I need suggestions (or links) for RL7, RL10x, or RL15 powder charge (& primer) for -
.204 Ruger, 34g Dogtown FBJHP's
I tried 27gr WIN748, CCI450, & 2.26" COAL, but was ~2MOA in my Howa 1500 (22" bbl)
Thanks, Bert

Try ruger204.com, lots of load data, and also click on Forums, youll find reloading data for almost any combination of bullets and powder.
I use 4895 and sierra blitzkings in my Howa 1500, almost a one holer.

Good luck. I have 3 .204 and they don`t shoot worth a crap with anything I have tried in any of them.

I know you did not list this powder, but I have had great results with it. Its worked well with diff bullets too.
Pet Load:
Nosler BT 32gr Bullets
Remington Brass
28gr Benchmark
Federal GM205M Primers
Sierra Blitz King @ 32gr shoot identical groups
My rifle is a Savage Mod 16
I have shot this load on paper and out to 400yds. It has grouped five shots at 0.138in @ 100yds. Any wind at all ruins the performance of this load. Thats expected with a 32gr bullet though.
