H4198 in .204 Ruger?

[Mount Sweetness]

Has anyone tried H4198 in .204 ruger?

I am having trouble finding load info for max loads.

35gr and 40gr bullets

Varget has done well but I have some H4198 to try, pet loads welcome, thanks

I would search at 204ruger dot com ... lots of discussions there about pet loads from a reliable bunch of 204 shooters.

I've searched the net up and down, very little Info on H4198 in 204

This powder works well in my 222 and 223, surprised that it is not popular in 204

There are some pet loads for H4198 on the aforementioned forum, but not for the bullets you mentioned (not that I have seen, anyway).

I'm looking for info on H4198 in 204 ruger. Specific bullet weights of 32, 35 and 40gr

Can not find anything on the net that I can trust.

Does anyone have a 204 pet load using H4198?

You don't trust yourself to put in 20grains and work your way up? FS

I have tried H4198 in my 204, went up to 23 grs with a 32 gr bullet. Start loads at 21.7 with a 32gr bullet and 20grs. with a 39 gr bullet. Work up your own loads for your rifle, i have tried RE-10x and 8208 as well and settled on H322 as i get top speed and accuracy is equal to other powders and i have a 8lb jug of it.
