[QUOTE="nmbarta, post: 2044371, member: 78438"] It's because they headspace off the belt, belted mags grow a lot at the shoulder in the first couple firings. once they are fully fire formed, you can headspace your reloaded rounds off the shoulder just like anything else. You don't get case head separation because the round is still properly head spaced, so you don't get the typical stretch at the web that you get if you actually have excessive head space. This would be a real issue on a non belted round. It was all done on purpose. [/QUOTE]
