    Hornady factory 6GT ammo accuracy

    I figure most folks running 6GT are rolling their own...but how has accuracy been with factory Hornady 109gr ammo? Already have a supply of Varget, 450s and 108 EHs for my Dasher and BR but factory ammo availability would be a nice convenience.

    Potentially dumb question re: 6BR/Dasher BTO

    Let's say you have two barrels - one chambered in 6BR, the other in 6 Dasher. Both barrels have the same freebore. If you use the same bullet, would both cases have the same base to ogive measurement touching the lands?
