[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2473629, member: 101791"] I see the same thing on possible case separation. You need to set up a paperclip. 1.Straighten the paperclip out. sharpen one end to a point. 3. Then bend it on the point end to a 90 dr turn. In doing that don't make it to big. so it allow to pass through the neck of the case. You go down to the inside to the base with the pointed towards the outside of the case. 4. Move the point up and back around the base. You are feeling with the point to catch separation at about where the belt is on that case. You will feel the point on the paperclip catch then move up and down. that common with belted mag case. Two thing that will help stop the separation. Reset you sizing die to only bump the shoulder a couple of thousands back. or go to neck sizing die, only FL as needed. That will extend the brass life out to 10 to 15 loads. I own 6 belted mag rifles. You will need to learn to anneal too. Otherwise your case necks will split in about 5 to 6 firing of the case.
