28.2 but that is about book max so you must work up to it for safety.

I really wanted one for vermin and Scottish roe, but bullet availability for the latter isn't there anymore. Still fancy one for vermin, but not yet.

I’m shooting 39grn SBKs, N133, 25.2grn into 0.3MOA groups.

Had my .204 for a good few years now, really nice round, I’ve reloaded for it, but currently using hornady 40 grain vmax, it shoots like a laser, prefers 32 grainers pushed very fast mind lol.
Savage LRPV.

Hopefully my 20vartarg is coming late next week. Hopefully variation will go through smoothly.

Just trawled up a couple of old pics, .20 Practical by "Baldie" Dave.
It was a bughole shooter when I owned it, & probably still is .... it went on to a new life with another dedicated .20 aficionado.

Minimum is 50grain. So must be Berger.

There’s two guys on here selling 55 grain bullets. Ken.

I've got a few boxes of the 50grain Berger. Not tried them yet. My barrel is 1-11. But we're ok with 45g soft points.

Smiles per gallon as they say

That looks very similar to the .20 Predator. IIRC (long time ago) there was a guy up in Alaska hunting wolves with it.

That one you just sent.?

A lot of shooters probably think once used bullets are no longer available.
But there’s some (Lead) that get collected from the backstop and recycled and used again.
Waste not…..
Ken.
Ps. 12 gauge slugs are nice.

The 50gr and 55gr from Berger. They're still about, as has been said after your reply, but they don't make them anymore so not the faff free sustainability I like.

Same reason I use 338LM brass in my stalking rifle rather than 416 Rig.
