That's assuming I can get 3000fps with the AI. It still just barely beats the BR in wind drift and drop if I only get 2950fps.

A 6br is no dasher wink Add 200fps to your number and your in dasher territory.

Now, the fun one that I have is a 22 dasher...throated for 90's running about 3100...that is a 6mm killer and it's shooting tiny. Only bad thing, it's got little over 300 rounds and the throat looks like a 6 dasher with 600-700 rounds in it...so I don't suspect it will last long and I'm not standing on it.

Enjoy it, it'll be the most fun gun you have to shoot.

Yeah, I jumped the gun on the Dasher comparison. The excitement got to me.

Well I for one have never done that nuts

I promise you will love the setup. It's gonna be fun to shoot...it's twice the fun as I thought it was going to be. Mine's a 22 dasher, I've not weighed it but I bet it's 17-20lbs with a brake. It's a Borden drop port, Bix N Andy trigger, sitting in a McMillan Kestros stock and a Vortex Golden Eagle sitting on top...I LOVE this little thing.

Mine is getting set up exactly like my other precision match rig. Rem action, Manners T2, 8oz Calvin Elite, PA brake and Gen 2 Razor. It'll be 15ish pounds. With ZERO recoil.

My 22 creed sends 90's at 3350. It's a blast and a laser.
