I came across a deal on some Tubb Final Finish bullets in .204 Ruger.
Am hoping someone can load a handful for me using a mild load.
Will make it worth your while.

27.5 grs of AA2520 good load in for the 39 grain bullets.
Re: ATTN .204 Handloaders- need help
Anyone wish to buy the Final Finish bullets? There's 50 count; 5 different grits. 1/2 price.
In line with Coyote Hunter's comments on my other .204 thread, check out this video comparing a Rem 700 factory finished bore to a Lilja finished bore:

That is a very intersting video!! Im sure the extremes were used on both ends like one of the worst barrels they could find and one of the best. It was still and eye opener though!

Glad you like the video. I almost wish I wouldn't have seen it.
My understanding is that the premium quality barrel makers like Lilja, Shilen, Kreiger... hand-lap their bore finishes to a mirror image, literally. The rule-of-thumb on a Remington 700 factory bore finish is that the barrel is considerably smoother on the outside than the inside. The video certainly makes that evident- wow!
