New Production Norma 6mm Dasher Brass

[timeout]

All it takes is time and money and those don't seem to be too important in this hobby.

I'm a waste not want not kind of guy. Money is important to me. Worked hard for what I have. I try not to spend it stupidly.

Here is cycle data that I logged for 5-firings from a 31" Benchmark barrel (with 105-VLD's and CCI-450's):

Why do you think there was a velocity decline between next to highest charge and highest?

Take a closer look at the charges used and the powder type.
The first 4-firings were all with RL15, but each one at different charge levels.
The 5th firing was with RL16.

For case life, I like to go gentle on brass the first couple firings, until there work hardened some.

My mistake, scanning, not reading sometimes sorta works. Or not.

I'm an old guy and not in very good health. I need to use up what money I have before some ungrateful millennial inherits it or the $9,000 a month nursing home for my wife gets it all.

It's time to Dasherize the dasher and take full advantage of that long neck... LOL

I was recently thinking of a something like this... BRXL

Yep, using the Norma brass you could probably squeeze out another .020-.030 for the shoulder.

Does anyone know if Norma stopped making their 6mm Dasher brass? All suppliers seem to be out of it and some are saying it is out of production. My current barrel is for the long neck Norma Dasher brass and I am in the process of having a new barrel chambered. I would like to use the Norma long neck brass but I am not sure it will be available

Which suppliers say Norma stopped making Dasher cases?

How many firings have you gotten out of your Norma 6 Dasher brass so far?
And have you had any signs of web separations?
