Dasher varmint info

[BradY]

Just about got my first dasher up and running, the first barrel will be a varmint/fireforming barrel 22 inches long and 1:8 twist. The second barrel will be coming shortly after HV profile 1:8 twist finished at 28 inches set up for 1000yd BR and club f class.

With the varmint barrel Im looking for a starting load for the 70gr nosler ballistic tip and varget.

Also will dasher cases feed from a 5 round AI mag?

I would start around 34 gr. and work up. My dasher varmint load is 37.5gr. of varget (I have to use a long drop tube) with the 70gr. Nosler ballistic tips at just under 3700 FPS. I'm not sure if this would be too hot in other rifles or not. Other people seemed to have good luck with N135 but it showed pressure signs in my gun before I could get up there in velocity.

Thank you, Im not really after loads of speed, in fact I have no issue running standard 6BR speeds as they are nothing to be sneezed at. So long as I can put down a few red fox with it I will be more than happy.
