Recently aquired a ruger m77 .204 and I have about 250 never fired brass, and around 350 32 and 40gr v-max bullets, and the reloading dies. Since i dont hand load, i'll probably just sell eventually. What would all this be worth roughly?

It's worth spending the cash on a reloading setup, LOL. I've seen one of those guns get ~.4 with the first round of handloads out of the box when this guy was working his loads up for it. It was the only M77 in .204 I've seen but I was impressed. I had to work through the second round of test loads to get to ~.4 with my .308 the first time. I say handload, handload, handload!

Let me know what you want for the brass. I sold my 204 in an ar platform, but i will be getting another bolt gun. One thing to consider, the 204 is a fun gun to plink and play with. Factory ammo runs roughly a dollar a round,if you get the dogtown bullets from midsouth you can reload for about a third of that. That is reason enough to reload, plus it makes it more fun.

I just acquired a T/C G2 Contender w/a 204 barrel. Haven't even fired it yet but I'm in the process of buying reloading equip and would like to load for the 204 in the future. What kind of dies are they? I may be interested in dies and bullets if you decide to sell. Thanks

Try Midway for dogtown. You won't find them at Midsouth.
