[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1525634, member: 12995"] Relevance of the history lessen was that most belted mags are from a skinnier parent case, than the non-belted magnums. That is why the non-belted cases appear to hold more powder than the belted cases. It's simply a design feature, not because one has a belt or not. Just to give you a prime example... The .30-378 Weatherby case holds ~133 grains of powder, that's 23 MORE grains of powder than the .300 RUM. Belted case holds more powder than the non-belted and still fits in the same action. Myth busted... If the 6.5 CM and 6.5 PRC had a belt on it, I bet yall would still be drooling over it, and would be defending the belted design, instead of vise-versa... [/QUOTE]
