figgy Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 You can buy .223 ammo anywhere with a good selection and cheaply. What makes you want a .204 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foosa Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 I use both regularly, 1 for night vision and 1 with a day scope. In practical use (foxing or crows at realistic ranges) no difference, both can hit and dispatch equally well, nothing In it for accuracy noise or recoil, bullet drop for practical use from either is within what I need. I reload for both so ammo selection isn't an issue, I think it comes down to whatever calibre you use it will do the job it was built for, if you learn to place that particular bullet accurately?

I was thinking of a .223 but someone I know has a nice .204 with all the whistles and bells on it at good money. @foosathanks for that Edited June 5, 2018 by Delwint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendrix's rifle Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 I've read this one a lot, if I remember rightly there's no difference at short range at all, longer range you can load the 223 with light bullets and near enough match the 204. You also have a lot more bullet selections to choose from in 223, 35g to 90g or so if you have the twist for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
