After 4 or 5 loadings, the cases will start to be difficult to chamber. There is a die that is made specifically to return the case to original dimensions with regard to the belt. I load and shoot 5 different belted magnums and some of them are pretty warm loads to achieve what I want them to do. I bought the die and used it to recover those cases that had swollen too much to chamber easily. Here is a link to it.<a href="http://www.larrywillis.com/" target="_blank">http://www.larrywillis.com/</a>  it is about the third item on the page if I remember correctly. It won't do anything about enlarged primer pockets, but if you are experiencing that, you are definitely too hot.  This die also lets you use brass from another rifle without any problems.</blockquote>
