This is posted on the lever forum but thought I'd mention it here in case anyone missed it. Midway has Hornady 218 Bee brass in stock. Not cheap but this is the first I've seen in a couple of years.

I noticed I did that right after I posted but couldn't figure out how to change it. I figured I was instantly making some Wasp and Zipper enemies!

God bless Hornady for making the old caliber brass again. Now if they'd start making of .25-20 I'd be pleased.

I've necked up and blown out .218 Bee brass to make .25-20 WCF. Very few case failures and the resultant .25-20s are noticeably longer-lived for reloading than normal .25-20 shells.
