[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2051370, member: 10755"] Simply false, that thread is written by someone with zero experience with belted magnums. I have been loading belted mags since 1988. I have never had a case head separation because I know what is required. The case does not stretch at the web, it elongates at the shoulder and withdraws brass from the neck. If the case stretched at the web on the first firing, it would be evident when you section a case longways...no such stretching is present. The 264WM grows in the shoulder, on average, .016”, the 338WM .014” and the 300WM .026” in the worst brass I have seen but averages .018”. If the belt was not present, these cases would be pulled in two on the first firing. Again, people read something in the interweb, which is false, then it becomes truth and bandied about as such. The only belted mags that do not grow in this manner at the shoulder are the Weatherby chamberings which I have several of. Please check your facts before going by what you heard, and not what you have experienced. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
