[QUOTE="Majopikeras, post: 2051362, member: 32407"] Hi! I have seen problems with "full sized" belted magnums... The case will headspace in the belt -FULLY AGREE- but during fireforming, the case blow the shoulder and AT THE SAME TIME, the case web will stretch. This will make the case life shorter, and -depending on your chamber tolerances- cause early case head rupture/separation (don´t ask me how I know LOL) If you create the fase shoulder, the fireforming load will blow the case, but this being holded by the false shoulder will keep case web stretching to a minimum. In any case, the false shoulder will no hurt. There is a recent thread talking about the "classic" loose tolerances on belted magnums and how they are prone to "overgrow" in the first firing: [URL]https://www.longrangehunting.com/threads/0-03-growth-after-first-fire-264wm-ww-brass.254927/[/URL] It may worth a look. The false shoulder will help a lot to remedy this. Hope this help! [/QUOTE]
