[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1149686, member: 12995"] I've never had any problem getting accuracy out of any of my belted cartridges...Once you fire-form them to the chamber and neck-size, they headspace off the shoulder (like a non-belted) and the belt, so there should be no room for issues as far as the belt itself is concerned. Some of mine shoot sub-1/2 MOA (yes, all the time, as long as I do my part). So let's not get into a debate about the frequency in which these rifles shoot how small (or large) of groups. I will agree that the sharper shoulder angles (35-40 degrees) have nothing but positive advantages, like the Ackley Improved calibers. I prefer the 40-degree versions of the AI calibers, myself. As much as I hate to admit it, the short & fat powder columns do seem to continue to prove to be just as efficient (in some rare instances more efficient) as their full-size magnum counterparts with all the advancements in powder technology these days.
