I need a recommendation of powder to use in my 6 Dasher.
For Shooting LIGHT Bullets such as 70 Nosler, 58 VMax or 87 VMax at the heaviest.
It is a 12 twist so I am not interested in the Heavy bullet loads which are plentiful on Accurate Shooter.com.
I found one shooter who used 34.3 g Benchmark with the 75 VMax on Accurate Shooter, and another fella who recommended 37.5 g Varget for the 70 Nosler. (sounds like a lot to me).

I want to avoid VV N-135 cause I can't find any which is not priced ridiculous.
Can't find Any anyhow.
Thanks for your help.
 
l have found that Varget/adi2208 is the go to powder for the 6mm dasher
having tried a few different powders testing from 80gr to 105gr bullets in two 6mm dashers l always go back to Varget/adi2208 for the most consistent and precise loads

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
