6 dasher 87 vmax issues
- Thread starter Kiba
- Start date
A friend of mine has a 1:10 twist dasher, very accurate to 600 yds with 87 VMAX. Don't know his load.It might come to that. As of right now it would be cheaper than shooting them with the 87 Vmax-- because it might take 4-5 shots (or more!) to hit them with the 87 Vmax. The 105 Hybrid would probably only take one, although I'd miss the target "acrobatics" with the Vmax.
I'll post back with how the 80 Nosler and 88 Bergers do. Might have them Friday.
Gosh... who woulda thunk....but it appears the vast majority of of folks with 1-8 twist and faster aren't able to get these to shoot, with a few exceptions of course...myself included. My 6x47L, 1-8, doesn't much like them even though it has the perfect FB (.080) for them. I guess they just don't like being "over spun".
Worked up these loads last year with my 6BRX. 1 - 8 TW. 26 INCH BARREL

Nice. What velocity are you getting with the 88s and N135?
