[QUOTE="dwm, post: 1179627, member: 1136"] I was commenting on bigedp51 post about the rimmed .303 cartridge and the huge headspace he was mentioning. The belt on belted magnums is there for the same reason, to keep cartridges with excessive headspace up close to the boltface. I agree that most reloaders headspace belted magnums off the shoulder, not the belt. I have had headspace issues with WSM cases cause excessive pressure. The headspace difference between full length sized cases with hard brass vs freshly annealed cases was causing me problems. [/QUOTE]
