Looks awesome I am putting together a 7saum improved and have looked at that chassis for it. Xlr is one of the few that does a medium action inlet that I’m using
 
little update with n540 and the 62 eld-vt in 16.5" bbl

max load 36.5 grains for 3,630 fps

53 grain vmax I am still working on but should get 3,800+
 
I will test one more powder(H4895) with the 62grn ELD-VT in one of my 22 Dashers and do the 3rd update on the above post.

I just picked up a couple of boxes of the Sierra 69grn BiltzKing bullets and looking forward to testing. My dilemma is, all my 22 Dasher brass is loaded so, maybe mid-winter to test.

Thanks for sharing! I did a pressure test with my 22arc 18” and it looks like Il be able to run 62eldvts at 3520 with 33.7gr of cfe223. Looked at Hornady’s load data afterwards and 33.7gr is what they show as max.

Your making a 16” 22Dasher/GT look very appealing!
