Winchester makes the highest quality brass available, and each and every piece is made to meet and exceed the most demanding quality control and performance standards in the industry. New, unprimed brass. This is not loaded ammunition.

Preparation:

  • Due to the manufacturing process and/or shipping, case mouths may not be perfectly round. To ensure a round case mouth, cases must be sized (or have the expander ball of the sizing die run through case neck) and deburred/Chamfered prior to loading.

    Note:
  • A light "staining" may be found on the case neck of new brass. This is due to annealing. Annealing is a process, performed by the manufacturer, which involves rapid heating to a specified temperature followed by rapid cooling. This process imparts cases with the proper hardness to securely hold a bullet as well as gives flexibility to expand and contract upon firing and repeated forming. The "staining" is a residue from this process. This stain may be removed by tumbling before loading. Brass should be full-length sized, trimmed and chamfered before loading.

    In recent months I’ve found the quality of Winchester brass seriously degraded. Every bag of 100 cases that I’ve purchased recently has contained cases that were defective to the point of being impossible or unsafe to use. All of these bags contained exactly 100 cases so there were no extras to replace the defective cases. Cases had deep splits or tears at the mouth or deep gouges in the shoulder or body that could cause ruptures upon firing; or, malformed heads with excessively thick rims or too-shallow extractor grooves that prevented them from fitting into the reloading press shell holder . These defects were not unique to one bag or caliber; they were found in multiple bags of .22 Hornet, 30-30 Winchester, .222 Rem. and .223 Rem. cases.
