Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats 6x47 Lapua

I bring up Ridgway because its like cartridge dog years.
40 rounds for score plus sighters will show which rounds hold up over time and which ones foul out pretty quickly.
Sitting shoulder to shoulder I see no difference in KE between a 140g in a 6.5 and a 105g in a 6mm on a -47 based case.At 1000 yards.
Noticeable difference when you run the 105 out of a Dasher.
Targets fall over MUCH slower.
My Dasher only lasted 750 rounds.Toast.
Granted it was 750 rounds of dammed fine accuracy.Very easy to tune.After 750 I could not break 50%.
BRs and Dashers do very well in decent conditions.
But at 2 oclock in the afternoon.
You'll be looking for something else.
As you said, this thread is about your #1 yote gun.
As I said.
I like it.
