[QUOTE="newmexkid, post: 556193, member: 33152"] The running of a paper clip inside a belted case has served me well for about 25 years. Take a new case and run a straightened out paperclip inside the case until it hits the inside of the belt...nice and smooth. After you've reloaded a case several times, (I always checked after the 4th reload) take the same paperclip and do the same thing . This time as the paperclip nears the belt you will feel it gets kinda, "scratchy" with a feeling of a rough spot(s). If you feel the, "difference" scrape the inside of the case with the paperclip to make sure it's not some powder or primer residue. When I felt the rough spots on the inside cases in my 300. Win they went into the trashcan. No matter how, "good" they looked on the outside. [/QUOTE]
