Short necks…Dasher

[Bodhisafa]

So I hear a complaint of the dasher is the short neck, but haven’t been able to read any information regarding it being a detriment. What’s the reason why some people get hung on this topic?

Have no idea. The 6BRX also has a short neck and I have no complaints whatsoever.

It’s the old fairy tale about long necks being more accurate. I don’t know how many old articles I’ve read over the years about the 222 was so accurate because of its long neck. Apparently it’s perfect size for efficiency didn’t have anything to do with it, LOL

Comparing to it's parent case the 6br a longer neck gives more flexibility on seating depth and wider range of bullet lengths accommodated by a particular reamer/chamber.
Dasher decide what bullet you're going use to spec reamer.

Theres two downsides to short necks. The throat erodes faster and the freebore becomes more critical and limits you to fewer bullets. Other than that I have not seen any other issues.
