[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1514106, member: 30902"] Maybe it's just me but I've never used anything special for resizing belted magnums. I shot the 7RM for over twenty years and loaded for it with a cheap Lee Collet die system. When I first started loading for the STW RCBS was the only company producing dies so I went with them. After getting sick of RCBS's decapping problems I went with Redding. I now use Redding for the STW and 300wm and have no problems getting five or more loadings per case without any sticky bolt issues or case head separations just above the belt. Yes, eventually they will get thin and begin to crack but with no higher frequency than the non belted cartridges I shoot. More often than not the first sign of failure appears at the neck, not the belt. [/QUOTE]
