What is your normal load in this brass?
What is normal brass life of this brass in your load?
Anything that I should be aware of using this brass?

New to Dasher so looking to learn from others on this one.

Thank You
 
Have two 30” 1-7.5 twist 103 -108 Bullets
31.2 -32.0 Grs. Varget . 2860 2900
6 Firing no sign of giving up .
Now if you want to Hot Rod it ?

I shoot 600 and 1000 yards .
Works well .
People say New Brass shot it Hot = short life ?
I am sold on it ?
 
When the Norma Dasher first came out I tested one piece of brass. Shot it light the first load, worked up to slight bolt stickiness and backed off a half grain. I loaded it 9x’s total until it started raining hard enough that I stopped shooting and the primer pocket was still very tight.

What is the node speed for the 107 smk or 110 smk?
 
I avoided norma brass due to the notes on my reamer print. It noted norma brass needed .303 neck length. Anyone seen this or have issues from it?

Well I knew a Guy that bought 300 Norma Dasher Pieces of Brass ! only to find out He had to trim .050 off them.
I was very Sad.
I built a Norma Dasher for someone and even supplied a bunch of brass. He messaged me that he had looked up Dasher trim length and cut them all back to 1.550”. It still shot fine, LOL!

I think he later won the Nevada State mid range championships with that rifle, with new brass, lol

It’s preferable to use the Norma Dasher reamer if your going to use the the Norma brass. And you have to trim .050” off the neck to use it in a Lapua Dasher chamber.
OK not to sound stupid on this but i have made costly mistakes in the past so here is my question is tge .050 off of the overall length, or need to turn the neck thinner.

Cringing hitting the post button but I honestly don't know exactly what on this

The neck on the NORMA 6 Dasher brass is .050" longer than a neck on Lapua 6BR case fire formed into a Lapua Dasher, if you use the Norma 6 dasher brass in a Lapua Dasher chamber you need to trim the Norma brass necks approx. .050" in OAL.
