[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1675506, member: 12995"] Yes, that’s how you properly handle belted cases. Neck-size until you get a sticky chamber, then FL size a couple thousandths...Then back to neck-sizing. It also helps your brass last exponentially longer, by not work-hardening it as much. I use the same method on my non-belted cartridges, too. Reloading book specs are a CYA lawyer-proof guideline, not the God’s honest truth. I didn’t have anyone to teach me how to do all this reloading stuff, I had to teach myself. I had a lot of trial and error. This is why I try to help folks on here, so they don’t have to go through all the same stuff I did. [/QUOTE]
