[QUOTE="dbhostler, post: 698329, member: 799"] I am talking about a standard belted case. The area in front of the belt stretches and a FL die cannot resize this area close to new case specs. In some rifles, like autoloaders, the reload may not chamber and in bolt guns, you may notice the bolt takes more effort to close after several reloads. This can best be illustrated by chambering an unfired case and chambering a case that has been reloaded several times. You can also measure just above the belt on a new unfired case and compare that with a resized case. This difference can translate to accuracy problems. I only mentioned this that when choosing a long range round, it is better to choose a beltless case if you reload. Another problem is headspacing on a belt as opposed to the shoulder, but that's another thread. db [/QUOTE]
