blackfox 9 Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Took out the fox thats been sniffing round my chickens... I love the .204, im getting started with reloading, im starting with 40gr Hornady V-max as my rifle likes their factory ammo. Quite excited about making "the perfect load" - sad i know.... but very fun And compared to a .223 and the other varmint rounds its pretty quiet! My rifle Remington 700 SPS Varmint .204ruger PES T12 Moderator - they are very good if only a bit heavy Timney trigger - to be fitted HS precision stock Ior Valdada scope base Warne QR rings Scope - Konus mpro 8.5-32x52 30mm - Gettin a IOR valdada 6-24x50 with 35mm tube when i can afford it!!

blackfox 9 Posted October 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Ric....... you should be excited they are amazing fun. West to Westcountry guns today to pick up some ammo and bought Hornady 40gr BTs - until im rolling with the reloading stuff, got some bits on order with midway. - Bit of info on the box Muzzle 3900 fps - Thats what they claim although ive been told its less If its Zeroed at 200 Yards you should get the following 100yds +0.7" 200yds 0.00" 300yds -4.3" 400yds -13.2" 500yds -28.1" So its a pretty flat bullet!! even less drop with the 32s Quote Link to post

blackfox 9 Posted October 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Christ that looks one huge fox mate Yeah was fair big, glad i didnt have far to carry him! Saw another but the shot wasnt safe... Im going lamping tonight at a mates, been told that i cant miss and have to be quick cause the foxes where we are going are pretty wild. Due to the farmers lad chasing them on the quad at nite taking pot shots with a .22 using Stingers... Quote Link to post
