Bulk Brass

[PeterPan]

Lapua makes IMO best brass, however with little work Winchester can be turned into good brass.

It needs to be anneal and primer pocket has to be uniformed.

For most of my rifle reloading, its Winchester. Best quality, most consistent of the mainstream manufacturers. Hornady is good, but seems to be a little harder to source in my neck of the woods.

For precision shooting, Lapua is the way to go, but it is very pricey and I almost cry if I ruin a case or have to discard one!

For pistol shooting, I use mostly winchester, but in reality, for most pistol shooting you really don't have to be too picky to get good results. I used to go the anal competitive route and weigh all my cases, seperate them by weight, deburr/uniform primer pockets, trim to uniform length, and make sure I made up my lots using the same manufacturer. For paper punching I didn't see any appreciable performance increase after doing all this prep work, than if I simply used whatever cases that came to hand. I rarely, trim pistol cases anymore and don't bother deburring flash holes, etc...it isn't necessary for most shooting needs. Just my $0.02

Winchester, Remington, Federal in that order.
