    Lapua/Alpha worth the premium?

    Yes, don’t waste your time and components shooting second tier or trash tier brass.

    I shot a proof competition contour (PVA Osprey) without issues with the full bridge. I never paid attention to the clearance when I had the barrel but it must be close where minor dimensional differences can mean the parts touch.

    6mm Dasher

    Speed no, rotational speed yes. And 2800 with a 7.5 twist barrel and 105 hybrids are fine. If your velocity is too slow you won't have enough RPM to stabilize the round and you will need a faster twist barrel. And if your happy with your results at 2800 then stick with it. Trust your...

    6mm Dasher

    Well, have fun trying them out and report back. David Tubb’s 115gr DTAC is a more popular heavy-for-caliber so maybe look into those also. I haven’t tried them or the VLD so I can’t add much more here. I’ve shot a lot of Barnes 112gr match burners and recommend them for a heavy 6mm. They...

    6mm Dasher

    30.0gr would be safe as a starting point for 115 VLDs. Work up as always, I'd guess you could hit 2850 or so also but with mid 31gr. Why do you want to shoot VLDs? Compared to hybrid designs they are hard to tune and have worse BC?

    Accuracy International AT-X

    For something that extreme I'd call AINA. They or Wintac build up the chassis domestically so they will have all the small parts. And your cerakoter better be picking up the tab for that...

    .22 BRA

    Is that a new barrel or your old barrel? What was your load data last time you worked up a load? After some time away from the 22 BRA I just bought a fresh blank for the caliber.

    .308 mtu or m24?

    My barrels were in 6 Dasher so both were plenty adequate for felt recoil. I actually didn't notice a real difference in felt recoil but I did feel the weight difference when carrying the rifle. Recoil management might be a different story with a 308 though.

    .308 mtu or m24?

    I agree with this. I've found no noticable change in balance between M24 and MTU barrels. While the weight is different it's different centered over the balance point of my rifle anyways so it doesn't affect the balance.

    The forms are often more about memes than experience. If your scope works for you then rock on.

    Oh yeah, it blows real hard. I don't leave home without mine anymore.

    Send iT Level adapter for Badger C1 mounts

    Unfortunately this is probably spot on. Their in stock rates always suck and since they showed the part a long time ago it's probably been designed awhile ago and just never made it to production.

    Send iT Level adapter for Badger C1 mounts

    Still no solution released yet?

    ZCO mount or Spuhr or Geissele mount for ZCO527?

    This is my experience as well, I keep saying I’ll swap over to the Badger but haven’t gotten to it yet.

    6mm Dasher

    For a Dasher I test 0.1gr.

    As Kiba said Ryobi makes this inflator tool which is cheapo at depot. After that take some vinyl tubing and cut up a case, jam the neck end of the case into one end of the tube (I used a Creedmoor necked to 7mm just 'cause.) And then cut a small ring out of the center of the case and jam that...

    6mm Dasher

    That would be my plan with alpha brass. You will probably find a load for 105's in the 31.x - 32.0 range but it's worth it to start low and work up. I've never tried 115 Dtacs because the availability used to be poor. I wouldn't hesitate to try them now. I shoot the Barnes 112gr Match...

    Accuracy International AT-X

    I think cleaning needs of the action depends on your environment. I don't deal with cold temps or blowing moon dust in Florida so I just wipe down the bolt with a rag and apply a few dabs of grease from a tub of auto grease and that's worked just fine for me for a few years of shooting an AI...
