I am near starting the build of a 6mm Dasher for F-Open.. The barrel will be a .237Bore, 1-8 Twist, to finish at 30".. The reamer is a .271 neck, with a .155 FreeBore.. I will be shooting (or at least I will try) Berger 105 Hybrids. It has been my experience with "regular" 6mmBRs, using 105-108 weight bullets, that they tend to L-O-V-E VV N150 powder. As a matter of fact, I believe that it may be the most accurate powder for the 6mmBR using the "heavies"... Taking that into account, I intend to try using N150 in the Dasher... On the "Powder Burn Rate Scale" VV N150 is considerably slower than Varget / RL-15. However, in the small 6mmBR case, it "acts" like Varget or RL-15.. Possibly in larger cases it (N150) may "act" closer to it's normal burn rate. Which brings me to THIS:
QUESTION: Has anyone tried N150 in their Dasher / BRX and if so, does it have a burn rate closer to Varget than where it falls on the burn rate charts? Additionally, if you have used it, how were your results? Thanks in advance for any information you can provide, I do appreciate it..
