I've started trying to load the 110 atip in my 6 dasher. Im not too far into the process and I realize I could use some direction from the internet. Anyone running the dasher and 110 atips have a good load that prints small groups at distance? At 100 yards, I've got lots of Itty bitty groups. At 870 yards, not so much. Im running a 7.5 twist kreiger btw, 600 rounds down the tube. So, any body got lots of experience with em and want to help a poor blind neophyte?
 
Maybe it would help if you gave your load specifications and procedure for that load.
Just rambling, Varget seems to be the go to powder for bullets above 105gr. I have had great luck both with varget and RL 16 with 110 Sierra's, with the nod to RL 16
 
Sorry. Ive been running 32.5gr varget, 30 thou off with the hybrid. Tried 32gr and 32.4 gr, 60 to 90 thou off with the atip, and 10 inches of vertical at 870. Went down to 31.5, 90 off, and shot a 1.5 inch vertical dispersion. Just making sure I didn't miss a known node somewhere between 32.4. @ 2890 and 31.5 @ 2820

Sounds like you have something to pursue around 31.5gr, eliminate vertical at distance, winning philosophy.

Different bullet and in a 7 twist but 31.4-31.5 of varget in my dasher with a 115 rdf is money. 2880 fps

Your 32.5 node was hot and giving my definite pressure signs, the next one down is the 31.5 area that I found.

I do my testing at 500 now, its too hard to tell at 100, everything in a br based case shoots good at 100.

Well, here's my last experience for a while with the 110 atip out of a dasher. Shot it this evening. Anything over 2830fps, started to open up vertically alot at 870 yards. Between 2800 and 2820 shot unbelievable. Didn't matter if I jumped 30 or 100 thou. So the speed node seems to be VERY important, at least in my testing. Im going to stay with the 105 hybrid for now it looks like.
