Because if I have to listen to one more Fudd explain to me how the belt makes the case head super-duper strong and it's what they use in Africa on real Africa-Lions because the belt fixes all the head spacing issues that make rifles fail when being charged by elephants, then the Fudd is going to find out for sure if the belt really strengthens the case head or if they can still get a head separation as the doc is pulling a belted case out of the Fudd's sinuses.
There's nothing WRONG with it, it just doesn't DO anything if the cartridge has anything resembling a shoulder.
In all fairness I still love the 30-30, so I'm not opposed to outdated design features. Just the Fudds that Fudd around about them.
Come on, every fudd knows that RIMMED cases without an extractor groove cut in them (like the 30-30) have the strongest case heads - it's basic engineering!
