I understand the attraction for the many different 20 cal rounds. Still, 204 Ruger is a fine little cartridge. The accuracy I have seen shooting my Ruger M77 Hawkeye in 204 Ruger (shooting inexpensive Fiocchi factory ammunition) so impressed me that I sold my CZ 527 (223 Rem.) during my latest purge of my gun safe. At any distance out to 300 yards, I get better accuracy with the 204 Ruger rifle than I ever got with the CZ in .223 Rem.
Oh and by the way, I bought the Ruger M77 Hawkeye simply because it was the only left handed rifle I could find at the time that came in 204 Ruger. No other reason. It was a risk that worked out fine.
I have loaded up a few rounds to try out. I loaded using basic middle of the road suggestions in my Lyman manual, so I still have a lot of work to do, to find the load that shoots best in my rifle.
Here is that rifle:
