Starline has an estimate of 4-01 for filling orders. Hope they are right this time. It's been awhile. If you're looking to get some, this might be the right time with little wait.

Actually, I am looking for some more .357 brass. Are you buying direct from Starline? I saw that Midway is expecting some on the 30th of March, according to their website.

Every time I have ordered backordered brass, it always came in earlier than predicted.

Midway has the brass in now, 14.99 per 100, Plus shipping. I agree with 357 voodoo, I just ordered 500 from starline today for 67.10 with FREE shipping.

I order mine direct from Starline. I decided to order 1,000 since .357 brass is hard to find once fired.

This is as good a place to mention a little known fact that could potentially ruin your day.

The .357 brass from Hornady Lever-Evolution ammunition is a little bit shorter than real .357 brass. So, if you load once-fired, watch for it.

I wish that I had ordered 9-Largo brass from them back when it was available. I haven't seen that stuff available in a dog's age.

Yeah but that Hornady brass is great for us Smith revolver owners who want to load the Lyman #358429 bullets because they are too long in the N frame revolvers.

It's good brass and as long as you take into consideration the reduced combustion area it should be golden. Max loads in a short case can be problematic.
