All Star-Line brass available now

[ddixie884]

I just looked on the *-* web site and decided to see what wasn't available. Nothing, they show all available items in stock and available, no back orders. I see this as a good sign.

[M-Tecs]

I know they were expanding. Anyone know if the expansion is complete? Either way it's good news

[dragon813gt]

Once they start offering bottle neck rifle brass I will consider the expansion complete. I've had to wait a little bit for pistol brass. But have been able to buy what I want w/in a month throughout the shortage. I know a lot of people have requested they make bottle neck rifle brass.

I read somewhere they had finished their expansion, so now could keep up with demand. But I think now they will simply have more demand they can't keep up with. Alot of us probably went and found they were out of what we wanted, so didn't order anything. But now that everything is in stock, we will simply order more brass, and soon they will be behind again.

I ordered another 1,000 .32 H&R cases from them last Saturday. They're the only source for this brass, and I don't want to ever get caught short again for a caliber I load for.

Gosh, I hear ya Fred. I've been buying up 32 H&R brass for the last couple of years for the same reason. I love Starline's stuff and 32 H&R is the case I've been shooting most for a long while. Lately I started shooting 32-20 too so I started accumulating that as well. I'm really glad Starline expanded.

Starline is the best. And now in stock!

I doubt if they will ever get into rifle brass. Totally different machines, equipment, etc.

Just be glad you can get almost any cal of high quality NEW pistol brass from one source.

Have recently purchased .327 and 32-20. Fast shipping

Actually, Starline has been making some rifle brass for a number of years, just not necked down brass. They've been making .30 Carbine, .45-70, .45-90, just to name a few.

They also make runs for other companies, using the other company's headstamps. They made a lot of 357 Sig for Speer awhile back, which is a bottleneck pistol round. It has the small "s" on the headstamp, and generally has a smaller flash hole.

Hope this helps.

I sure wish they'd run some 25-20 brass; they're half way there when they run 32-20.

Purchased some M1 Carbine and 45 Colt last week from Star Line three weeks back. The M1 Carbine is very well made, shoots great with a 117 grain cast bullet that was powder coated and gas checked with H110 powder.

The carbine with cast bullets is a lot of fun to shoot.

Thanks for the post. I've been reloading some Starline 38 Colt Short and 45 Colt brass this morning - as I was doing it, I was thinking about how much I like their brass. Always been good folks to deal with and I hope that their expansion will put a stop to some of the shortages we've experienced at times.

But most do not consider those "rifle" brass, even we shoot them in long guns. Bottleneck cases are what everybody is looking for from Starline and I would be really surprised if they started making those. We can only hope!

It would be nice if they would make 357 MAX brass if they did i would be looking for a new barrel

[RG1911]

I finally got around to loading and reloading a bunch of Starline 7.62x25 (Tokarev) brass. I'm a bit disappointed with it. First, on new brass, some primer pockets feel a bit on the loose side. (I use a hand priming tool.) By the time they've been loaded twice, the primer pockets are definitely getting loose. I had one primer fall out, spilling H110 thoroughly into my Tokarev and bringing that day's shooting to a close.

I'm loading to duplicate the 1450-1500 fps velocities (as reported by my Oehler 35P) of surplus and factory ammo, so I really don't consider the loads excessive. My *opinion* is that the brass is a little on the soft side, and that the QA on primer pocket size is not complete.

Hunter at Starline says they've never received any complaints before. I need to send him some sample cases.

As always, YMMV.
