[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 840252, member: 11717"] Not sure if this is the OP's problem, but stretching, thinning and head case separation is not all that uncommon with belted cases. The belted cases are designed to headspace off the belt unlike non-belted cases which headspace off the shoulder. If the chamber is a tad long and you FL size, bumping the shoulder back more than a couple thou, the case will stretch with each firing. If your "spot" is a ring forming just in front of the belt, this could be the problem. If it's just a spot, then it might be a rough spot in the chamber. For those having problems like Mudrunner, adjust your die so you are barely able to chamber the case with an easy bolt so your case headspaces off the shoulder instead of the belt. [/QUOTE]
