Now while a perfect game is 300 is it possible to score everything from 0-300?

Hmmm, zero I can see with gutter balls the entire game through.

The scores I'm really wondering about are the 200-300 range.
I'm pretty sure all point values sub 200 are possible.

I see what you mean. In order to hit the 200 level you need a certain mininum number of consecutive strikes which leaves little room to achieve all the variations between 200and 300. Is that what you were thinking of?

NK, Exactly what I'm thinking.
Don't really need the possible combo of strikes/spares, just if it's possible.

I know this post is year and half old, but had to answer.
All scores from 1 to 300 are possible.
The only score not recorded as being bowled by the ABC/USBC is 292. This would take 11 strikes and 2 pins.
