My attempt to break my analysis paralysis..... Appreciate input from those with experience and hindsight while I cut my teeth on a new caliber.
Gunsmith/Buddy called and said "I got a 6mm barrel here if you want it" to which my answers was a no hesitation F* YES! Let's Go!
I initially was planning on re-barreling an existing 6CM I have but I've changed up the plan and am thinking I'm going to use this stick for a fresh build for another PRS style gun on a custom action, hosted by either an MDT or MPA chassis.
My question is 6GT or 6 Dasher? And why one or the other?
Is there a clear advantage to one over the other? Or does it boil down to simple personal preference.
I understand the GT will run a bit faster velocity, and the Dasher seems from a few things I've read a little more forgiving as far as reloading.
I've done a fair bit of reading on other threads, here, elsewhere, etc. and it seems both have very good pros, and cons, and their respective followings from those that shoot them. Recoil management for either? Both seem to get about the same feedback reports.
I do not have brass or dies for either. So I'm starting from scratch there. Peterson, Lapua, Alpha, Hornady (6gt only) etc. I do have a fair amount of pills. 105's 108's 109's 112's mostly. I know the aforementioned are wildly popular and great choices for PRS style shooting, particularly the Berger 105's and 109's.
For those of you running either the GT or the Dasher, if you were to do it again, would you change anything?
Or does it just boil down to personal choice?
