Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Norma 204

Q. (I tried the search funtion with no joy)
I have yet to use any Norma 204. MRP has worked quite well in several cartridges. (I load .22-250, .270 Win., .270 WSM; .280 Rem., .308 Win., .30-06, .300 Win Mag. plus a couple others not likely to be suitable...) I thought I had seen a refence here but may be mistaken. Were there some cautions mentioned about (ignition, pressure spikes/ inconsistencies, or other)? I may not even be recalling correctly if it was Norma 204.

N-204 = Re-19. Both are manufactured in the same facility, so just consider them to be different lots of the same powder.

Search for loading data on Re-19, and you'll be good. Just take the normal precaution of starting low and working up, all the while paying attention to your chronograph and the usual pressure signs.

Thank you! I was looking a a burn rate chart and wondered about that... I'm near out of Re19, and have 2+ # N204 stashed from some years back but never loaded any. Re19 working good in heavy .30-06 and .280 Rem. May even last long enough to get more...
