Learn something new every day. It’s great that Lapua and Norma make factory brass. Pretty wikid looking cartridge. Looks like a 108g bullet will almost be as long as the brass. It will be cool to out shoot guys with a cartridge that has less than 1/2 the amount of powder than most rounds.so the dasher is a not so wild wildcat based off the 6mm br (bench rest) its more accurate than the 6mm cm or the 243. Yes less speed but also less recoil. cartridges all have a inherent accuracy level. The 6mm BR and variants have been breaking records for years. you will not see any records for the CM or 243. Not that they are not accurate but they give up accuracy for speed and efficiency. chasing the .5" group down to the .1" group is the goal. Its pretty much the best thing anyone has come up with for 600 yard mid range
Gonna start the build process on my new rifle...
What are the details or dreams?Gonna start the build process on my new rifle...
I could have guessed 257 Weatherby. You sure like those speed demons. That will be a deer slaying machine.I'm thinking a sporter weight 257 Weatherby built on a blueprinted model 700 action with a 26" barrel, Mcmillan stock , leupold scope 4-12, and I dont what trigger yet.
Don’t rule out the Hornady 143g ELDX. Hopefully you can have it done before the SCH invitational in the spring. Love to see that barrel burner out there.Deer, antelope and elk. I've shot elk with a 25-06 and they fall over just as well as anything else I've used so I'm thinking the 257 with a monolithic bullet will be good medicine for all.
