'-' (dash) should not be a problem for DNS, '_' (underline) WILL be troublesome. It was a forbidden character according to the standards, Microsft introduced it for SRV records... so on site YMMV, on the internet ... be prepared for trouble.
(From a DNS perspective)... oh. btw, the DNS system is case insensitive... EXAMPLE.COM, example.com ExAmPlE.com are all equal....

When choosing a domain name you want it to be something that people will be able to remember easily. Adding a hyphen would probably make it harder for people to just type a domain name from memory, so I would probably avoid it.

If there is already a company with the domain name recobuilder.com and you are thinking of using reco-builder.com as your domain name, then think again. They are too similar and people will always end up on the wrong websites.
