I doubt any ‘06 records in long range benchrest. Couldn’t find the “records” calibers .... but did look at International Benchrest Shooters Nationals 1000 yard results for both heavy and light gun categories in 2016 & 2017. Not a single ‘06 in the top 50 finishers. Most of the top dogs in LR BR are running 6mm / 6.5mm. A quick look at the top 50 suggests that the venerable 6 Dasher is mentioned close to 1/3 of the time.
In 600 yard International Benchrest, if you don’t bring a 6BR or 6 Dasher, you may as well stay home.
Given the shot placement record of the 6 Dasher ... and we all agree that is the main issue... maybe....
