Quoted: Can this be made off the same lower and receiver as the .223?? I have been looking for cartidge deminsions but no luck. Or do you think the AR Manufacturers will make some soon?

I have built several 204 barrels and uppers.
Same bolt and magazine as 223.
Cartridge drawing is
hereI can make you any profile and length you want.
Most guys have been ordering bull barrels.
A bull barreled 204 is an amazing thing to shoot.
I have only shot it to 150, but you can easily watch your hits at that range.
Feedback from a recent customer:
Randall, just got back from Idaho spending the weekend blowing up rockchucks and squirrels. That .204 Ruger is beyond description. Sub two inch groups at 257 yards were commonplace -- a real tack-driver!
Absolutely no felt recoil and I was easily able to spot my own misses (horrible, stock trigger) -- and the stainless barrel with Dave's handguard is the toughest AR I've ever seen. The guys at Sportsman's Warehouse wouldn't put it down (smile).
Can't wait to build another couple of these rifles for my uncles.
