So I've been trying to find an answer to this question without success...several brands of 38 Special cases I load have bands printed into the brass, while others are just plain smooth cases like all my auto brass. It seems that there is either a single band about 1/4" under the case mouth or two bands a little farther down, and I've seen this with several brands of cases.
So what's the purpose of the bands? Does it indicate something about the brass, or is it for some purpose?
