Starline brass backorder times?

[TEXASJD]

I ordered some SRP 308 match brass as backordered, never used there brass or ordered from them before. Any experience on turn around times and quality compared to Lapua, ADG?

Most time it's a week or two, often less

I ordered 6.5 Grendel Brass again last Thursday. It was "Backordered". I got a shipping notification on Saturday and the tracking info says my brass will arrive tomorrow.

After nearly 12 months of no joy, they finally flipped 6MM Creedmoor brass to "OK to backorder" status a few months back. I put in an order and it shipped 2 days later.

General consensus is if they are showing "OK to backorder", it won't be long coming.

I “back ordered” some Starline 41 Long Colt brass back in May.

I’m still waiting on it to ship.

I ordered some 45-70 September 27th and received it December 12th.

My experience as well on a couple orders I placed that showed "BACKORDERED" at the time I placed the order.

I’ve ordered from them several times and every time it was back ordered, and I had my order in a week or less.

Everything I have ordered after they posted "backorder ok" arrived in a week or so. Its good brass. Not quite up to Lapua but more consistent than FC, RP, Winchester, Hornady and many of the lesser knowns.

I got a batch of 38-40 recently after waiting about 2 weeks on backorder. While running them thru my belling die and chamfering them I came across 9 that had major flaws. I contacted starline and they said they would send replacements. I've never seen so many bad new pieces.

It really depends on what you're ordering and where it is in their que. 357 Max took 360 days or so for me to get, but, that is not a common cartridge and I was fine waiting.

If it said backorder, and you did, you'll be getting it soon. Like mentioned above, usually a couple weeks JD.
Yes, less common, like above mentioned 41 Long Colt and the like, those take a while. The bigger demand calibers will always be made before the less common. I'd like to get some of that 41 Long Colt brass myself, but think it be better idea to just retire great granfathers New Army (1905) to the display cabinet.
You'll have it much sooner than later

I did a 45-70 backorder on Dec 5th, got it delivered a couple days after Christmas

It really depends on what it is. I'm sure they wait till the get enough orders to justify a run.
