[QUOTE="gregsjt, post: 1468145, member: 88091"] I said the first .308 caliber magnum, not the first "belted magnum". I could still be wrong, but I do know that Newton beat the .300 H&H by 12 or 13 years. Its too bad his design didn't catch on, the belted cases on the H&H magnums were probably needed, but for all the other derivatives (Weatherbys, Win Mag, ect.) the belt served more as a marketing ploy than anything else.
