    I would think it is still the same. It will not be stretching on the rim as the pressure from inside the case will be pushing the rim back to the bolt and the shoulder forward and the sides out just the same to fill the chamber. With a rear locking bolt there is probably more room for movement along the bolt than with front locking.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
