toads Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 Hi, Four weeks ago I bought three boxes of the Hornady 32 two of which were superformance boxes (same bullet batch) and one box of the old stuff different bullet batch.Ihave deliberately tried them all, mixed and had 10 foxes 2 carrion crows and 2 rabbits from 40 to 250 yds. Seem to be ok.Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfox Posted September 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Thanks for the reply toads, 204s aren't the easiest to come by and my remmington will only shoot 40g hornady so glad you didn't notice any difference between the old and new batch so fingers crossed for mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toads Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 Hi, This is gonna cost me.Gun fell off the bed last night (don't ask).Had to use keepers 222 for lamping not the best but didn't embarras myself.Nothing looks damaged looking through scope.Going up to check zero and depending on results have sit out before dark.Wish me luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montey Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 I found the super performance shoots 1 moa higher at 200yards in 204 32grain but that wouldn't make a difrance to a fox. Also found them an improvement in consistent performance in 22-250 and 223 look for difrant colour primers in a box if all silver I've found them very good in all three calibers.

Brickhill Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 I've only had my .204 a couple of months and only shot Hornady Superformance through it. Excellent round in both 40g and 32g. My Tikka prefers the 32g but there isn't a lot in it. There are three RFD's close to me that stock this round but nothing else. I'd be interested to know what other factory ammo is available if anyone can help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alycidon Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 Reload and use Sierra 39gr Blitzkings. My 20BR gets on far better with them. Vmax has a max velocity of 4000 fps. I have had them break up in a 1 in 9 twist at about 3850/ 3900. The Sierras dont break up and hit hard as hell. On a 300 yard or so fox often as not there is no pass through.
