[QUOTE="7stw, post: 1419840, member: 22854"] Yup, I'll second the shoulder bump, but if you know the smoked shoulder trick, I'm telling you, it will make your brass last longer, chamber smooth, and not stretch so much. I also learned a trick, using a seven mag die. First, you have to universal decap your brass. SMOKE, the shoulder, run the seven mag die down to the point, that it just kisses the SMOKE. What you are effectively doing, is partially body sizing, the brass body, neck sizing, also, and not putting pressure on the belt, or web. After the initial firing, you are then, pretty much controlling the shoulder, just like a non belted. It has worked for me, at one time, I had four, STW's, and a few other belted mags. But because I also had a couple seven mags, I tried it, and it worked. It really showed up in the ES, and SD, on the chrono. Try it! AIM SMALL, MISS SMALL. [/QUOTE]
