    6mm Dasher

    I'll keep that in mind. The other barrel I chamberd for a friend I finished at 21" shot these two groups after getting a rough zero when I put it back together. Used proof, previously a 6gt with 2900 down the pipe. 33.5gr of h4350, virgin Peterson 6 dasher, cci450, 105 berger vld. No clue...

    6mm Dasher

    No, I guess I should have mentioned that. I ordered an off the shelf reamer from Manson that has .140" freebore. .2735" neck. Loaded rounds measure .268" With the 90gr tgk it will barely stick in the case to touch the lands. The 95 berger is almost the same way. I seated them down to the neck...

    Follow my 7 dumbo project aka 7 dasher!!

    I mean, there is a 30BR, why not a 7 ? I'd have probably shot for the 160 class of bullet but hey, sounds fun. Do keep us posted. Is a 180/190 7mm longer than a dasher case ?

    6mm Dasher

    That's what I thought. 32gr of varget is pretty standard. I can't even get 2500 with a 108 without heavy bolt lift.

    6mm Dasher

    What's a realistic expectation for velocity with 90-108gr bullets from a 22" dasher ? I've seen 2900's posted with 95's, and I know a guy personally that is getting 2700 with a 21" barrel and 108's. I'm pressuring out really low in the charge range. 32gr of varget under 85 sgk and 90 tgk. And...

    The only thing I've ever seen that used a socket that big was an impact we carried around with a drot. Which is a small crane for those that don't know. Boy ain't that the truth. A little over a year ago I got the call to inform me that a close friend of mine had passed. He was 83. He was still...

    And in this day and age they're also anti theft. I had to drive mine last I had it inspected. My children will learn to drive a manual.

    I brought one in on a stick of firewood this past winter. Luckily, he hung on til I got him in the fire. 🤣

    Hmm, the 462 isnt listed there. Have they done away with it in favor of the 400.1 and 500i ? Surely not. That's a big price jump between those two saws. Same here on the wood I cut. I fall very few trees. Most of it is storm cleanup or leaners that just finally gave up. Not to say that I...

    Emotional roller coaster: 6 powder droppers in < 3 years!

    That's actually all I would need, or want right there. I built myself one of the little two speed vibratory powder tricklers and I thought that was a major leap forward.

    I wouldn't mind building a 372 husky to dedicate to a 28, or maybe even a 32" bar. Currently run a 28 on my ms462. I like the reach. I'd cut it back to a 20" if I had another saw in its class. With a 20" and an 8 pin it rips smaller wood. I do enjoy my 462. It's l8ke a modern 044/440. I should...

    Another buffing wheel story. This one related to me from my dad. They had a guy on their crew using one of the old black&decker wildcat 7" grinders with a buffing wheel. This was back in the days where the guards were looked at as optional. The guy running the grinder caught his shirt tail with...

    Had a similar accident with a grinder and a buffing wheel one time. Buffing between some boiler tubes when it caught a tube and kicked smooth out of my hands impacting my hip bone and wadding me up in my tyvek. Smells of Q trust the plan hopium bs to me. The chimp ? And pictures.

    Emotional roller coaster: 6 powder droppers in < 3 years!

    Valid point. One of the best factory ammo groups through my winmag had an es of 230 fps. 150gr core-lokt. Shot it for fodder during break in. Shot one hole at 100 yards.

    Emotional roller coaster: 6 powder droppers in < 3 years!

    I was watching a video from speedy Gonzalez at a br match and there were several chargemasters there. Mine did good when it did good. Had good sd and shot good groups with it. I just got tired of the wandering scale and the overthrows every other charge. In speedys video he mentioned running...
