[QUOTE="meathead, post: 23106, member: 613"] When you fire a new case,it headspaces on the belt and the case stretches from the belt, and can cause early case head seperation. You can resize after the first firing to just off the shoulder, or use a neck sizing die. Then you will be headspacing off the shoulder, and will get good case life and accuracy. If the case stretched alot(excessive headspace)on the first firing, case life can be short. My 300 Win. Mag. has a pretty tight chamber, and my Winchester brass lasts to 15 reloads, then the necks start to split. It all depends on your rifles chamber and your loading technique.
