6BRA load data

[SGT. Slaughter]

I use N150 for 108's. 31.3 gives me 2920 with room for more.
I tend to use H4895 for 103/105 bullets

Thank you Sir.

Some recent winter powder charge testing in preparation for the up coming season.
I shot the first 4895 ladder at 600 and thought the black and green looked promising but wanted to look at it again at 1000, the same charges overlapped again so now on to seating adjustments and primer ladders.

I tried a different primer this morning with interesting results and darn good ES numbers for those guys into numbers.

It’s just a matter of time! For Three years I’ve been saying the Dasher was overbore and threw shots! Took a lot of heat over it. Now, others see it to! Don’t get me wrong the Dasher with the right reamer, right powder, right shooter is still formidable. But the 6BRA has the edge in agging ability, ease of tuning, and making brass.

In the 600 yard arena most of the matches I’ve been to, have been won with either a 6BR or 6BRA. Now if you head over to Piedmont you’ve got some pretty tough guys over there like Chris Nicoles and Jeff Godfrey that can wear you out with a Dasher! But I’ve seen several shooters go from the Outhouse to the Penthouse and the only thing they changed was ditch the Dasher for a 6BRA! That includes yours truly!

Probably a better test would be to put a Dasher and a 6BRA in the hands of a relatively new shooter. That would be fun to see.

Most of the top guys can figure out how to make any decent combination work! I’m not married to any caliber. I’ll shoot whatever makes me the most competitive and the Dasher ain’t it folks!

Count me in as anew shooter
