[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 469597, member: 2736"] Thanks BH It sounded personal because you did not disagree, you just quoted me and then attacked everything I said. And for what it is worth "EVERY" belted case Is designed to head space off the Belt or they wouldn't have one. The fact that some re loaders chose not to use the belt is not the issue the question of how to headspace off the shoulder with a belted case is just a simple matter of fire forming and then Not moving the sholder or changing the body size to maintain case size and capacity so the case is not pushed forward until it touches the belt by the bolt. Once fired, the fired case has "No" head space and It moves the belt away from the chamber and seats against the shoulder. And you are right there are a few belted cases used by bench rest shooters but the majority of the cases used are beltless cases that headspace against the shoulder. I think it is great that you can get 30 + firings out of a 300 Weatherby and I would like to have some of that brass you are using. (I only get 5 or 6 with annealing) and then the primer pockets are gone. If I loaded a mag down enough to get that many loadings it would not be called a magnum. and would be called a 300 slow poke or something. I will not quote any more of your post because I don't believe it's productive, But I will post my opinion. So have a good day. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
