6 Dasher speed

[Geronimo Jim]

I have a 1 in 8 twist barrel and will be shooting 105 - 108's. Is there
a sweet spot speed wise? Yes of course I know every gun and every
barrel is different, but generally speaking.

Need barrel length, but 2975 to 3000 will work for the more popular 105 vlds and hybrids.

Powders:
4895
Varget
RL-15

At least that will get you started. Need to ff cases first. 30 grains of Varget, false shoulder, jam 30 to 40 or a bit of both. Good luck. You can not go too far wrong with a Dasher.

You should repost over in the 6mm modified cases thread. Enjoy.

Thanks.....it is a 28 inch Kreiger barrel. Bat B action w/bix N andy in a long range
McMillan stock for competition....groundhog matches....200 300 and 400 yards.

For those distances I would also test a lower velocity range to see what kind of accuracy you get. For 600yds+ 2980fps up to 3030fps or so has shot well for me. I prefer to keep them in the 2980 range.

Good shooting
