[QUOTE="7stw, post: 1859983, member: 22854"] Thst could be a variable as well, as the belted mags are headspace on the belt, not the shoulder. So the the factory set distance from the shoulder, can be as much as .040. Once its fired, the die will eventually control it, but not push it back to where it was before you fired it. And, the farther it is away, the more stretch you get above the belt area. I never did figure out why the factory brass shot better, but, at that time, Big green, was putting out some lousy chambers, and if it was on the liberal side, you were effectively pushing back the shoulder every time you resize, which shortens case life, and I was having that issue as well. Just a few 20/20 thoughts! Be safe! [/QUOTE]
