Starline is high-end brass especially for handguns. I use it for my thermonuclear .45 Colt loads. Buffalo Bore and Double Tap do too.

Only handgun brass I buy and rifle if they have what I'm looking for
Starline manufaxtures good brass. The only difficulties I havbe expereinced are with 38 Special/357 Magnum brass if one intends to use moonclips as their groove is cut deeper than all other brands I have used.
Also their new 45 ACP brass used in Dillon reloaders has a tendency to stick in the belling stage. I believe that Starline offers a free modification of the Dillon expander to overcome this issue.

I have a fair amount of different sized *-* brass in my inventory. It is all around great brass for the money. I will hold it up against Lapua brass anytime IMHO. In 500 S&W it has outlasted any other brand that I have used by twice as long so far and still going strong. I find that the nickel plated does size a bit harder and has a shorter life like all other brands do but is still superior to other plated offerings.

Most brass i buy once fired when I find a deal. Once you have all you need why pay retail?
But when I do buy new. Pretty much have to for any 32 cal stuff. I buy Starline.
I did buy a couple hundred 357 mag brass new from them a couple years ago. I finnaly junked my 1st case. And it was because I over crimped the heck out of it setting the die. oops.
If they ever stock 327 mag brass. I am in for a big order. Getting tired of the raping Federal is sticking on me. Could at least offer me a reach around 1st.

Just got into 38 Super. Fired brass on line for that caliber is more than the new from the Starline factory.
Have been using 100 cases for load development. Some have already been loaded 10 times with no indication of any problem
I have noticed though that the factory teaches it to run and hide when it hits the ground.
