[QUOTE="65WSM, post: 2206857, member: 9551"] I have four .204 Ruger tubes on hand. Three on bolt rifles but I have a .204 Ruger Shilen 24 " barrel and bolt for an AR-15 purchased from Brownells. About $400 including the bolt matched to the barrel. The upper wears an 8-32X56 30mm elderly Burris. I just scored 5 pounds of LT-30 direct from the Hodgdon website. I intend to test that powder alongside 10X and H-322 with the 24gr NTX and 26gr Nosler unleaded bullets. I have lots of 32gr Z-max bullets that are my current favorites with 25.5gr of Alliant AR-Comp at just over 3800fps at under 50K pressure. All of my .204 Ruger barrels, factory and custom, have been nitrocarburized to extend their life. I still have one that is due for replacement. All of my bullets are coated with HBN. No naked bullets. [/QUOTE]
