[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1137855, member: 90080"] rogmay, I hope that your primer cratering was simply caused by a second hit by firing pin. That would be a big relief, I'm sure. As far as your die not reducing your brass near the belt, it is a fairly common problem with belted magnums. The only fix, I have found, is to purchase the Larry Willis Collet Die. It sizes the case to the belt and will work on most all belted mags. It also has one end that allows you to quickly check each piece of brass to see if it needs to be used. I have been using it on all my 7 rem mags and STWs and it is a great invention by Larry. It adds an extra step, but well worth it. You never mentioned your load specifics, so I can't comment on that. I would suggest you double check your fired cases for headspace vs. resized brass, just to be sure. I am assuming you checked your extractor for brass shavings and that it's not broken or worn.
