[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 698521, member: 41442"] i dont use magnum rounds in an auto loader but even standard rounds can be trouble in them. Thats why they make small base dies. Anymore i wont load ammo for my ar15s or ar10 without using a small base die. I dont know of a single auto loader thats chambered in one of the beltless mag rounds and I doubt theres ever going to be many even custom chambered for one. I dont know of a single handloader that loads mag brass headspacing it on the belt. Im more of a long range deer shooter then a comp shooter but ive seen 300 win mags win alot of long range shoots in the past. I think the differnce in a belt or no belt is more of an argument starter then anything that effects accuracy or reliability in the real world. At least for 99 percent of the people using them. As to accuracy ill say this. I dont have a single dedicated target gun. Closest thing would be my varmit rifles but the hands down best shooting gun in my safe is my 7stw. Its belted and its overbored but it still will shoot 1/2 inch 5 shot 100 yard groups with its favorite load and 3/4 inch for many other loads and thats with hunting bullets. The second best shooting HUNTING rifle i own is my 300 wby mag. Its a bit fussy but shoots 180 tsx into less then 3/4 of an inch at a a 100 yards again for 5 shots. Ive got rifles in about every standard caliber and none shoot as well as these two with the exception of one 06 i have thats a real shooter too.
