Next PRS cartridge with no components?

Then id get a 6mm cartridge that takes a full case of that with 105-115 pills. 6GT, 6x47, 6xc, 6 creed. 6xc and 6 creed have large and small primer brass which is nice as you can run it off of any available primer.

I don't know what that is, so I'm going to say no.
Warped sportz used to make custom paintball guns ~ 15 to 20 years ago. I still have mine somewhere. One of which was called a Dark Angel.
 
22BR/BRA/Dasher with 88 ELDM’s. No recoil, decent barrel life, 25 cent bullets that will shoot with a 105. I switched from a 6x47 and wouldn’t go back.
Can you recommend a smith that has a 22 Dasher reamer and can chamber for a Kelbly? I’m planning on 22 Dasher with 88 ELDMs.
 
Brownell's HAS, 500 count, Peterson 6 XC, Brass in Stock and it's MY ,. "Choice" for, 600 - 1,000 yard steel, UNLESS, the Winds, Howling !
Buy a 1-7.5 Twist 6 MM barrel and enjoy, the 105 to 110 grain, high BC, Bullets that, ARE "usually", easily, found.
Low Recoil and ACCURATE !
 
I have some guys I shoot with that are making the 22 conversion for ease of bullet availability. Im anxious to see how they do.

I almost bought one of your BRA barrels a few months back, but didn't due to bullets.

I wouldn't say I'm married to a cartridge, but damn, H4350 or RL16 under a 140 hybrid was almost hard to make it shoot bad in my past 2 barrels. Now I can't find any of the above.

I know that the 25cal 135 Berger LRHT can be had right now and I'm tempted to just dive in for a couple barrels worth. That will leave me with just trying to find powder.
Rl 16 is out there,.I saw 8 lb jugs this morning 349.00 T legs in n.c.

I think if you would shoot it relatively slow to stay under the speed limit you wouldn't be much harder on the barrel than the 6mm.
I’m surprised the 88 ELD at 3150 or so hasn’t caught on in PRS. You can push that in a long tube without bonkers pressure. Bc trues up nearly equal to 108 ELD.. My 88 loads in 223 top out around 2800 but the drop back calculates to more at 600y, so g7 seems close to the 0.300 mark, range of .290-.295. I’ve heard from other 88 shooters that they’re seeing real bc a bit higher than advertised, but perhaps because we all were using warm day experience and not a 59f temp as the bc presumes.

Show me a Berger 105 hybrid or 109 LRHT in stock for more than minutes at a time. Its so frustrating. I can't seem to be one the winning end of these.

I shoot with several guys who are running them. A couple guys went 22GT and a few did 22 Dasher. I shoot PRS all over Florida and brain melting mirage makes trace and impacts very hard to see. But they shoot good, none the less.
 
If I were to build a prs rifle it would be a Dasher with Alpha brass and throated for 103 vtac’s or a BR-a

I ended up switching to Dasher. Complete impulse decision..... So glad i did. Almost everything coming out of this barrel is usable and often much better than that. I have not come to a happy conclusion on forming brass however. I have been fire forming as well as using a whidden hydro die. Both are working good. Both are a learning curve. I am hunting for alpha brass.

Its been a fun changeover. I wish things were more available, but oh well. If it were all available, i'd probably be broke.

I wish i knew how much less recoil this cartridge was than my creedmoor. My rifle tips the scales at 25+ lbs and i had it heavy to tame the creedmoor. Now with the dasher, i cant believe how much my targets stay inside my reticle during recoil. Game changer.
