As I understand it, the belt was created as a headspacing solution in an era where there was very little standardization in chamber dimensions. Essentially, a slightly different way of solving the exact same problem that a rimmed cartridge solves, but with better feeding reliability. That problem today is pretty non-existant compared to what was being dealt with 100 years ago.
Everyone seems to want speed...so if a beltless case allows more interior room for powder within the same required exterior dimension...what does the belt actually do that is desirable or beneficial today?
