In the process of loading a few hundred WRA headstamped 44spec cases that I got back in the 70‘s
from an old cowboy . These are not balloon head . Got to wondering when Win quit the WRA headstamp on 44brass . A google search did not turn up much .
Any of you Gents have a date ?

Affording to Product Change Authorization WC-406, dated 7-26-67, the following headstamp changes were to be implemented on centerfire rifle and pistol cartridges:
Super-Speed, Super-X, and Winchester changed to W-W Super.
WRA and Western changed to W-W.
