Hornady 8604 Unprimed Brass Cases 204 Ruger - 50 Count Box

The Hornady 8604 unprimed brass cases deliver consistent performance for 204 Ruger precision shooting applications. These cases provide the foundation for match-grade ammunition with uniform wall thickness and precise dimensional tolerances. Manufactured to strict specifications, they enable handloaders to achieve maximum accuracy potential from their 204 Ruger rifles.

What Makes This Different

Hornady brass cases undergo multiple quality control inspections during production to ensure dimensional consistency within 0.001 inches. The brass alloy composition provides optimal case life while maintaining proper neck tension for bullet seating. Unlike budget alternatives, these cases feature uniform primer pockets and flash holes that contribute to consistent ignition and velocity spreads under 15 fps.

Key Features

• Uniform wall thickness ensures consistent bullet release and accuracy
• Precise primer pocket dimensions accommodate standard small rifle primers
• Annealed case necks provide proper bullet tension and extended case life
• Flash holes are deburred and sized to 0.080 inches for consistent ignition
• Overall case length held to 1.850 inches ±0.005 inches
• 50 cases per box for efficient loading sessions
• Compatible with all 204 Ruger chamber specifications

These cases perform consistently across temperature ranges from -20°F to 120°F without dimensional changes that affect accuracy. The 204 Ruger cartridge excels in varmint hunting and precision shooting applications where flat trajectory and minimal wind drift are critical. Case capacity of approximately 26.5 grains H2O enables optimal powder charges for velocities exceeding 4,000 fps with 32-grain bullets.
