Awhile back I bought AI's 6mm dasher smithed by Shane.I had to sell a bit of gear to buy this rifle but I think it will be well worth it.
I haven't had much chance to use it due to some illness in the family,moving jobs and a hell of a workload lately.
Today i got out and did some work with her.
The group measured 0.337" centre to centre.
Not a big deal normally but this was at 200 yards.It did some more from .4 to .7 in a little gusty wind.
We will give her ago at 600 yards next Saturday and a 1000yards on the Sunday.Hope the load holds up at the longer distance as I was limited with how far I could shoot today due to my new location surrounded by neighbours.
So a big thanks to AI for selling this rifle and kudos to Shane for getting it so right.It is smooth and tracks well and just plain shoots at these distances.
Thanks AI and Shane

Macca,
I was shocked to say the least when AI said he was selling his BR guns to fund car project!
It is a relief it went to someone who can do it justice!
That is a impressive group Macca!

About time you got it out and had a crack!! I think you will be very surprised at what it can do... at all ranges!!! I have a couple of groups that are super small... would be the most accurate rifle I have owned to date!!
Now make me proud!!!!!
