[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1556800, member: 10755"] One problem here, a belted case headspaces on the belt, it cannot change. What you need is to either trim .010” off the TOP of a shell holder, or place a feeler gauge under the case head and see how many thou it takes to size the case enough for proper chambering. A case elongates well before the case shoulder is ever touched, if the die is too long to push the shoulder back, you have problems. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
