6 Dasher stuff

[oneflyer]

Topic's probably been beaten to death. There must be someone out there that makes a reasonably priced dasher die. Like Harrell's does for the 6BR.

I use a Redding S die from here:

I seem to able to get a lot of use out of the Redding without it scratching my brass.

I use a Wlison arbor seater to seat pretty much everything I shoot. Just an old habit.

John Widden makes good priced bushing style Dasher dies. They work great.

I've had good results with Forster/Bonanza BR dies for the Dasher - have you tried them? Sinclair's retail price on just the Forster Dasher FL die was $34 in last year's catalog - that seems pretty reasonable to me.

Does John Widdon use your fired brass to make your die? Or does he just have a standard size?

Send some brass to Harrells. He will send you a die that best matches your cases. I've used 2 Redding type S dies and a Forster. Not one sized the same. Between the two Redding, one die would size the base Ok and oversize the shoulder and the other would do the opposite! The Forster die I have needed to be modified in order to bump the shoulder. In short, go with the Harrell or full custom.

He just has a standard size.

Whidden's dies were designed with input from D. Kiff at PT&G to work with dimensions of his Dasher chamber reamers. So that "standard size" is a little bit of a misnomer.

The Whidden full-length bushing die is nicer than my one from Redding and comes with a nice comparator to measure set-back and a locking ring that actually works.
