204 ruger using 30gr Berger. I have a few questions?
I picked up 2 boxes on here 30gr Bergers. #1 In the Berger book shows every bullet in 204 OAL 2.260. I havent shot any in my gun with OAL of 2.260 I have been loading 35gr to 2.240. 40gr too 2.250. Should I go by Bergers book 2.260? It has the 30gr 2.260.
# 2 has anyone used the 30gr much? # 3 The Berger load date is like it's under powder. I am using 35gr using 28gr H4895. Book says 26.9 max. It's not showing any signs of being to hot. I am going to start out using the 30gr with RL10 and H4895. But I also have tac h332 varget and benchmark. # 4 how do u think they would work on coyotes? I know the 30gr will do a great job on crows, armadillos, ground hogs, and bobcats. A coyote mite run a little . I usually shoot them behind the front leg. I try to keep it out of the shoulder. I have a predator control permit. I can shoot coons, coyotes, grey fox, red fox, oppsums, skunks . It allows me to kill them any time by any method on private land. Game and fish started it to help turkeys, deer, quail, songbirds, rabbits. Thanks. Last edited by varmit_master; 06-09-2020 at 06:01 PM. |

On this website it seems like the 35 grain Berger has quite a reputation for killing coyotes.

Varmit master,
The Hodgdon reloading center has the data you seek for the 30 grain Berger bullets. They show 11 loads for the 30 grain Berger. Just pick the components you want. Also sent you a PM on Predator Masters Last edited by rbreyley; 06-12-2020 at 03:40 AM. |

I think you should load them to the length your rifle likes.

I loaded few up with Tac, RL10, and H4895. Just to see how they will group. I would like to find a few more of them.

Varmint master,
If you shoot a coyote with the 30 grain Berger I love to hear how that went. I mean why not, they work in 17 Remington. That should be interesting. |
