[QUOTE="243winxb, post: 1390811, member: 97793"] Both look like normal die marks. Belted magnums- seen a 7mm Rem mag that was neck sized only, till a fl sizing was needed to close the bolt. [ATTACH]88703[/ATTACH] When the head clearance/cartridge headspace is set by the shoulder, the case body in front of the belt becomes unsupported, in the chamber on firing. So i feel its best to fl size every loading. Bumping the shoulder back about .005" Many fl dies will do this using a single stage press, with the shell holder making contact with the bottom of the fl die. Not so on some progressive units. Just my opinion. Others may be different. [URL]http://www.larrywillis.com[/URL] see collet die. I never needed one for 7 & 300 mags. [/QUOTE]
