[QUOTE="Buster Hemlock, post: 1892602, member: 109327"] I run Wolf Small Rifle Magnum primers in my .204. A buddy bought them by mistake and gave me 2000 of them so I decided to give them a try, just dropped the normal charge a little and worked back up. I've gotten very low SD's and ES's with them and 40 gr V-Max's. Winchester 748 has given me the best velocity but Benchmark has proven the most accurate and best consistency on velocity. Personally I've found the .204 a bit lacking on coyotes, have had a lot run off after being hit well. I prefer a 6mm, specifically my .243 win pushing either 62 grain Barnes VG's of Sierra 70 gr BK's around 3850 FPS. Haven't had one walk away with either of those but I will shoot what ever I have on hand or can grab the quickest if I see a 'yote! [/QUOTE]
