Would dasher .050 short be worth doing?

Ive been reading on the various 6br improoved's And I think I want in.
Heres the rub.
I have a 6 Norma Dasher Reamer
I have an extra dasher resize die I could shorten easily.
I am gonna have to buy brass anyway.
So if my math is correct if i held my reamer .050 short I could use 6br brass?
I would gain the PITA of fireforming.
What do you think the chances are this juice will be worth the squeeze? Over a reg dasher?
If it matters barrel will be a 10 or 12 twist. It would really only cost me $40 for the die to try it I guess.
Thanks much

Basically you would be short chambering by .050. Unlike running a reamer in further, short chambering is problematic to body dimensions due to body taper. Where your final base diameter would finish at what ever the taper diameter of your reamer is .050 ahead.

Also the final neck length and free-bore would remain the same as your 6 Norma Dasher reamer, and likely not be optimal for a 6BR improved scenario.
