So folks are very obsessive about brass. For range blasting, to me brass is brass. It all works (except a few junk brands) I do not buy new brass other then a few time. I bough some Starline 10mm
Check their website for all the calibers, they used to be just handgun but make some rifle now,
Starline Brass | Rifle, Handgun, and Pistol Brass |
Comparing brass is actually pretty simple. Run the same loads in say 5 pieces of each, track the number of times it is loaded. Then compare data. Based on that, I avoid Federal rifle brass & iffy on their magnum handgun stuff. Identical loads in other brands were fine but enlarged primer pockets showed up in 2-3 Firings in Fed even their GMM brass.
RP handgun brass is well known for being thinner in the case mouth. For 45acp, I cant load 0.451" jacketed in RP brass, I get setbacks. So brass can be fairly compared imo.
