[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2027303, member: 10755"] A belted case does not STRETCH on the first firing at the web, this is a myth. The belt holds the case, the rest is blown forward and out. I have cases here in partial fire formed condition with the first third of the case from the neck down blown out while the rest of the case is not. A second COW load is needed. I can deliberately add powder in small amounts and blow the cases out further down until one is fully formed. No stretching occurs and the necks shorten as the brass is pulled from here, not from the web or lower case walls. I have never stretched a case fire forming it, not a single belted case or an AI case. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
