M118LR

If the projectile was a Nosler Partition it's supposed to reach target distance at a velocity above 1800 fps. When shooting on the Ice Pack I was just barely able to keep .300 Win Mag above 1800 fps @ 300 yards. 18 inch barrel Ruger Guide Gun.Numbers run,Hornady factory loads on their calculators.

6mm (creed) 105 grain match bullet( not a dasher). Which I believe has similar mv to a 6mm dasher. In my quick search I couldn’t find any specific data for the Dasher

Wind drift 10mph@90deg/full value.
.308- 2.23 mil
5.56-3.11mil
6mm-1.9mil
( caveat- Difference in bullets and mv will have different results)
Just a little personal experience-
I spotted for 2 guys setting up an elk rilfe spitting 30 cal 200+ grain projectiles at 3150fps about a month ago, I can’t remember the specific cartridge but it was some nosler specialty thing. They zeroed out at 450 yards, and that was the range we were shooting. I spotted for them and they let me shoot the last two shots and put both shots in center mass with in about 3 inches having never shot the rifle before. Bipod, no rear bag off a bench. With a rangefinder, known ballistics and that rifle, I would feel confident getting 1st shot effective hits at long range. Those things things hit hard.
