Yeah not much, but Alpha and Hornady makes it.In general since it's It's not common cartridge
I own a couple 6mm Dasher Rifles, a Borden Super Short 6 action with the magazine that came with the action and a Curtis AXIOM Action with ACCURATE MAG WSM magazine. Both feed the 6mm Dasher rounds with 87grn and 105grn bullets flawlessly without any modifications.I'm looking to build a rifle to shoot long range, deer hunt, coyote hunt, in the 6mm caliber, and use less powder than the 243 and 6mm rem. What I'm really looking for is pros and cons with the dasher and gt. Also what is everyone running for brass, primers, powder, bullets in each? And what results are you seeing ?
Have you loaded the 6 creed down to same velocity as the bra? You mention better barrel life and less recoil. I'm wondering ifthey'd be identical if they shot identical.It's not that I don't like the case, happens to be one of my favourite rifles. It's super accurate, very fast. But it eats the throat pretty quicker, it is the only rifle I've ever had carbon rings appear, it's slightly harder on brass, slightly more expensive to feed. I went 6 creed for ease over the br variants. I got my bra last year and I was mistaken. The 105's at 2850-2950 is plenty fast enough, absolutely insanely accurate and easy to tune is an understatement. I've never seen anything like it. I'm super happy with the creed, but if I had experienced the bra I don't think I'd own a 6 creed. The lack of recoil is awesome!
Now trying to figure out what to do with the 6 creed, thinking of repurposing it for hunting. Will be heavy as it was more Initially set up as match rig. The 6bra and my 25 creed see much higher mileages vs my 6 creed now
