[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 2844896, member: 12282"] I like that thought. Some roughness where the prior case head separated and etched the chamber a little. That fact that the OP cannot detect a ring or groove makes case expansion a poor explanation for the outside appearance. Well, semantics here, but since a belted magnum headspaces off the belt, cannot really be a headspacing problem per se. But I get what you are saying. I just don't know how a reamer could cut a proper belt groove, but a grossly deep chamber. I myself used the term "headspace" earlier. I don't know that we have a proper vocabulary for "belted magnum with too long a chamber"...... Someone smarter than me -- teach me, does the reamer for a belted magnum cut the belt groove too? Or is it cut later.? I am no gunsmith, though I screw the occasional Savage together..... [/QUOTE]
