Who This Is For
This ammunition is purpose-built for varmint hunters pursuing prairie dogs, ground squirrels, coyotes, and similar small to medium pest species at short to long distances.

Frequently Asked Questions
What firearms are chambered for .204 Ruger that this ammunition is compatible with?
The .204 Ruger cartridge is supported by a wide range of bolt-action and single-shot rifles from manufacturers including Ruger, Savage Arms, Remington, and Howa, among others. Always verify your specific rifle's chamber markings and owner's manual before purchasing ammunition to ensure full compatibility.
Is this load suitable for coyote hunting, or is it strictly for small varmints?
The 40-grain PSP at 3,900 fps is effective on coyotes at moderate ranges, particularly with a well-placed shot. The explosive fragmentation of the PSP bullet is most efficient on smaller varmints like prairie dogs and ground squirrels, but many hunters successfully use this load on coyotes inside 200 yards. For larger predators or longer shots on coyotes, a heavier bullet weight may be preferred.
How does the .204 Ruger 40-grain PSP compare to lighter or heavier loads in this caliber?
The 40-grain PSP strikes a balance between the ultra-fast, wind-sensitive lighter loads (such as 32-grain) and the heavier 45–50-grain options that sacrifice some velocity for retained energy at range. At 3,900 fps with a 0.275 BC, this load shoots exceptionally flat and holds up reasonably well in mild wind conditions, making it a versatile all-around varmint choice for most field situations.
