[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1361896, member: 2736"] I recommend setting the headspace for the belt at .002 to .003 and after firing the first time, headspace off the shoulder to save the brass life and better fit the chamber. With the variances in belt thicknesses, it would be hard to use both the belt and the shoulder for headspace. On dangerous game cartridges, I recommend setting the headspace at .003 every time so feeding would not be an issue at the worst time. Just the way I do it J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
