223/204
Has anyone attempted to convert 223 brass to 204 Ruger?

You could try running it through your die and see. Lubed of course.
But I think it'll be too short. Too bad, since there's plenty of .223 around. |

It would be too short. You can make them from .222 rem mag but those are likely harder to find than .204 these days.
