I have looked every where with no avail. I looked on Lee's custom page and the minimum they make is for .22 caliber. Any of you 204 addicts know where a fellar can get one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
 
The 204 takes the same shell holder as the .223. RCBS or Redding # 10's work for me... I don't know of a length gage by anyone. Why not just measure with calipers or a mike? If you have to trim them, one of these tools works better to set up the trimmer anyway...... Don
 
I have the length gauge and holder to trim the 243's just wanting to be able to start trimming the 204's. I will be on my third reload on this brass before too long and want to be prepared.
 
Buy a 22-250 case length gage, then chuck it up in a drill and file it down to .20 cal, then trim the flashhole end to length. You'll need a #4 lock collar shell holder, so get a 223 case length gage too if you don't already have one, it took about 5 minutes to make one in a drill press. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif
