I don't get the 'no belt' sentiments either. They are an absolute non issue.
Absolutely correct.
Maybe ? some people like the 'short-fat' look?
Personally I like the longer sleeker looking cartridges.
So far I haven't seen a pic of the 30 Nos so I have no opinion about it. My 300 WM is capable of MORE than I have to do now so I'm not looking to better its performance. (besides I have an 8 mm Rem Mag)
