[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1533960, member: 10755"] The headspace on the belt is .220” from base. SAAMI allows .010” over this, so if your measurement is .223” to front of belt, then you’re good to go. I never use a cartridge to headspace off, they’re rarely ever .220”. I set my belted mags, when chambering, to exactly .220”, saves any drama when loading cartridges down the track. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
