22 dasher load and speed question.

[wildchild]

Got bored and spun a 8 twist wilson arms barrel on my prs rifle to tinker in the off season. Was hoping to shoot the heavier 80 weight bullets but it hates em! ha!
It is telling me it likes the 70 vld bergers atleast. Im running 32.5 of varget and speeds is averaging 3400.
33 is pressure sighs, is this in the ball park for speeds? Id thought it woulda been faster. ‍

You are right where you need to be! Shoot it and love it!

That's cruising pretty good for a 70 gr bullet. .22 Dasher is a great round. Shoot straight!

Got bored today and played with 80 elds and 35 grains of RL23 has a sd of 0 lol and was goin 3310 fps with 1 hole groups. Got stiffer lift at 36 grains.
This might show promise with 90 plus weight bullets! Now gotta order a 7 or 6.5 to try!

MY DASHER SHOOTS WELL WITH N-135 AND 75GR VLD'S AT 3300FPS WITH SOME TINY GROUPS FOR SURE !
