[QUOTE="kraky2, post: 302665, member: 3532"] Boomtube is absolutely right and I have seen many posts with the incorrect info that he is talking about. REgarding why a belted magnum die doesn't size all the way to the belt ALL ordinary die makers leave a small safety zone so that the die can't hit the belt and move it. That way headspace stays where it was designed to be. A fl die should be set for about a .002-.003 bump of the shoulder from its full chamber dimensions in my book. Others may have slightly different opinions and you can set it even closer if all you are shooting is paper. [/QUOTE]
