6Bra versus 6mm Dasher

[dkhunt14]

What kinda front rest/ bag are you fellas using for those 5-6” forearm

I use a Hart 6 inch comp2 top and a custom 6 inch bag with the silver stuff from Protector. My rest is custom that I made. Matt

Jim You forget they love me down there. Lol I just hope this stuff goes away soon, we don't need this. I know of three people right now that aren't going to shoot this year because of the Virus.

SPJ I also have a Hart rest with a six inch top, with a leather bag .

How many strokes?

Just one bushing or an intermediate bushing to size halfway first?

How about using a gain grip bushing? Kind of like a gain twist barrel.

LOL.
I used to use 2 bushings. A larger one in the sizing die then another in a neck die. I liked working the brass a little more as I was annealing every time.

I actually have that. I use a custom die with taper in it. Back near the shoulder junction, it hardly sizes it. Matt

Alex I've been doing that for years with my WSM and rotate the brass twice in each die. Never have tried it in the Dasher.

short of the additional work, Ive had many situations that "gain" better results through double step bushing procedure. actually my very first attempt at a 6BRA implemented the said task.

I think that's important. And Stan, if you've been working with a dasher, stick with the dasher. Truly learn the case. You'll be farther ahead to learn the case than to switch. I think the br-improved and dashers are basically the same accuracy wise once cases are made. I just like the better barrel life I seem to experience with my br-improved

What kind of barrel life are you expecting. I shoot a 30br and barrel life is outstanding.
