[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1376425, member: 13632"] You don't have clue how much you don't understand what's going on. The absalutely best you can resize to a belt is the headspace plus the radius on the die which means your not sizing to the belt, any sizing your getting with a conventional die is simply the sized brass pulling in just enough to get it functional. All of my belted cases size only about .0005 down right in front of the belt which is enough that I've rarely needed the Willis die, my reamers match the dies very well and I can hold my headspace to what ever tenth I want and my chambers are nuts on and I still will never get that last little bit fully sized. I've made dies trying to get it done and you will shave the brass and push the belt by the time you have something that resembles resized right in front of the belt. The Willis die is the same as needing a small base die or a custom die to fight a to tight of chamber that you can't get the web quite sized and you get clickers. You can be well inside Saami specs and still not have things perfectly matched!! [/QUOTE]
