When Hall was shooting his 6.5 X 284 he only shot one group under 2" at 600 yds in a whole year. When he changed to the 6 Dasher, he was able to agg under 2". He came second in Piedmont with a 1.76" group and the World Record was set with a 1.46" agg group score. Hall uses a couple of Dashers ...one weighs 28lbs and the other 60lbs.
Dale, it appears your 1/4 MOA groups at 500yds are in World Record territory..even when competeing against those big heavy custom jobs. Great shooting --- Are you going to be competing in the near future? What rifle and bullets are you using? I'm looking at building a 6 Dasher, but my mind could be changed by whatever you are shooting as it seems superbly accurate.

Maybe that's all true about Sam. But, Sam is merely a benchrest shooter while Dale is an internet shooter. And that makes all the difference!
