    6BR/Dasher extraction/ejection?

    I have an old flat back 110 long action that currently is set up with an original Savage 110 .378 bolt head and 223 bolt stop to feed from short action AICS pattern magazines in CDI 110LA/308 mag bottom metal.

    I'm considering switching to 6BR or 6 Dasher, but am curious about others' experiences with how those short cases extract & eject.

    I currently run Dasher in a 700SA with Magpul 7.62ACs but would use a MDT 6BR magazine in the 110 if necessary.

    I do have a SSS enhanced extraction/ejection kit on the current .378 bolt head that I'd put on the new .473 bolt head with small version firing pin.

    Thanks!

    When I built my 6BR on a 110 action, I made mine single shot with a sled because the short round would not feed at all.

    Hey BoilerUp, How have you been?
    GACop. I think he was asking about extraction and ejection.

    Short or long action the distance between the breech and the ejection port is the thing that kicks the extraction and ejection in the arse. That short case seems to give Savage boltheads with the extractor/ejector design fits when it comes to getting it to the port before it falls off. Finding a way to make a standing ejector might be a plus. I know Fred will come along with the right answer soon.
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    Extraction/ejection wasn't all that great either, failed to mention that, thanks.

    I have a 6mm br built on a 110 LA. I have a sled so its single shot, the problem is when the case exits the chamber, the ejector slams it in to the side of the action. Causes it to drop the case, happens because of the short 6mm brass.
    Changed the extractor ball to the bigger one and it helped a little but not much. Fred at SSS Told me about the case slamming the side as soon as it clears the chamber he suggested one of the Improved extra tor kits they sell. I ordered it did the installation and so far its working great, shot 3 VFS matches so far and only 1 dropped case. Pretty sure that was my fault, either way big improvement before it would drop dang near every case.
