At the end of the day it's still a Remington...1200-1700 is where I'd put it and that would depend on who did the work.
That is a round I shoot a lot, it's impressive.

Judd, does the 6mm Dasher have to be fire formed or is it a standard case? Might be a heck of a varmint rifle.
I was wrong...on anything technical. Fitz............. is right, ya know............

Has to be fire formed....it's a 6br with the shoulder angle changed and blown forward .010.
Its a heck of a rifle for anything and one of the most accurate rounds out there.
PS - there is a way you can form them without firing...Hornady makes a forming die. You put liquid in the case and the die has the shape of the case and seals...you hit a plunger of sort on top of the die and it will blow the shoulders out for you. I'm not a big fan because they are smoking accurate while you are fire forming and I have a fire forming barrel now.

Add up the price of components. Find the smith and get his price. Determine how much it's worth not to have exactly what you want.
