If I was shooting a Dasher I would cut the appropriate amount off of the XC die to match the body length of the Dasher and smile.

So for those having aftermarket barrels finished, the challenge is not that dies fit brass, but that chambers fit brass. And that our chambers will support the brass adequately to mitigate excess web growth to begin with.
Given this, you’ll never need to concern yourself over small base dies, popping extraction, loosening pockets, high brass turnover, constant trimming, or any other tail chasing.
