Unfortunately no Hornady were available when I bought the Rem and Fed stuff and living in the bush you tend to pay more, just a fact of life out here unfortunately. Trust me mate when ti comes to the 204 you really want to reload for it as ammo can be hard to find for them at times often as can reloading components, hence why I bought 1200SBK's a while back along with 32gn Hornady V-max, 35gn Bergers, 26gn Barnes VG's etc etc plus 1000 cases and primers, and enough powder to fill em.
I don't have to worry about the next panic buy up in the US for years for any of my cals, they all run the same powder, most use the same size projectile/primer and I can use the same case for all bar one to resize if needed so I'm set in that regard.
Yeah I know the bigger cals are expensive my mate has em too, great fun to shoot but bloody expensive when you burn through a $2k a day or so playing with em!
but not much use having money if you don't use it to enjoy yourself hey?
I love the 50cal, that muzzle blast is something to behold, one really should experience that at least once in their lifetime!
