AWS why would you make a 22-204? is that not just a
.222 rem mag?
Not AWS, but the answer is "no". The .204 has a good bit more capacity than the .222 Mag. It's longer to the shoulder, has a steeper shoulder and a shorter neck. It actually has a bit more capacity than the .223AI even. Like AWS said, it's about the most you can get out of the small bolt face.
We drew up a reamer for a .22/204 shortly after the .204 came about. One of my buddies ordered the reamer, and is waiting for his barrel to be chambered for it now.

The BR guys blew the 222mag case out pretty close to what they called the 204 case only different now it's a 20cal and shoulder angle, think it was called a 222x35/222x45 was some article in Precision Shooting Vol II March 1986-1987.
