Substantially less internal capacity for shooting light loads in most 45 Colt guns with no modifications. You may need to tune extractor on some lever action rifles, or decrease diameter of the ratchet on the cylinder by .010 to accommodate the larger head diameter in Ruger Vaquero and Colts. Also increases magazine capacity in rifles.
45 Super* is the same externally as the 45 Auto, but has a thicker web, denser grain structure in the metal, and special heat treat process that enhances the durability of the case. Similar internal capacity as the 45 Auto. Some 45 Super load data was published by Triton Cartridge before they went out of business. *Loads to be shot ONLY in guns modified professionally to handle extreme pressures of this cartridge. DO NOT SHOOT IN STANDARD 45 AUTO!
Originating in 1957, the .454 Casull is one of the most powerful revolver cartridges available today. This is basically a magnum version of the .45 Colt.

Our .45-70 brass has been tested at elevated pressures suitable for Magnum Heavy Hunting Loads in adequate gun systems. When loading with black powder, annealing of mouth may be necessary to allow case to properly seal chamber due to lower pressures generated by these loads. Our case is produced very strong to withstand high pressure loads associated with smokeless hunting loads and since the only way to make brass harder is to work the material our only option is to leave them stiffer so the customers can anneal for specific application. See annealing procedure in Commonly Asked Questions, section #4.
This is a .45-70 based case that is 2.4 inches long and is suitable for smokeless or black powder loads. When loading with black powder, annealing of mouth may be necessary to allow case to properly seal chamber due to lower pressures generated by these loads. Our case is produced very strong to withstand high pressure loads associated with smokeless hunting loads and since the only way to make brass harder is to work the material our only option is to leave them stiffer so the customers can anneal for specific application.

The Initial run of 500 S&W Mag cases was built to use large pistol primer per Smith & Wesson and Cor-bon specifications. On July 28, 2003, Smith & Wesson and Cor-bon changed specification of primer pocket to be large rifle. Rifle primers are same diameter as pistol except they are approximately .006" taller. This was done to prevent primer from being pierced by firing pin when loaded with max loads and heavy bullets (bullets over 400 grains). It was determined that hole in primer allowed pressure to damage firing pin and bushing, kind of like a cutting torch and the harder cup of a rifle primer will prevent occurrence. All cases sold by Starline, Inc. after July 28, 2003, will contain a large rifle primer pocket to accept a large rifle primer. Hodgdon Powder has generated load data which recommends using Win. Large Rifle Primers. Click here to view or call 918-251-5640.
Cor-bon has also tested and recommends CCI 250 primers (Magnum Large Rifle). Our new cases will have an "R" after the "Mag" on head stamp to signify rifle pocket. If you have previously purchased 500 cases without "R" on head stamp and wish to modify, you can use a large rifle pocket uniformer to deepen primer pocket to accept large rifle primers by deepening pocket approximately .006". This will not affect integrity of case. For concerns regarding situation contact Smith & Wesson or Cor-bon as they designed case and subsequently changed it.
56-50 SPENCER (TAYLOR'S) (Large Rifle primer) 1.151"-1.157" O.A. (Backordered expected availability: NEXT RUN WHEN SUFFICIENT BACKORDER ACHIEVED )
The 56-50 Spencer (Taylor's) was built to C.I.P. specifications for operation in the Taylor Arms 56-50 Spencer. Rim diameter is .629" to .632", which may be too small to eject properly in some originals. Rim thickness is .057" to .061". Thickness of wall at mouth is .0125" average. Case mouth may need to be annealed if not sealing properly with low pressure loads. Maximum bullet seating depth is .375".
This case is very similar, except for the difference in length, to the .30 Mauser. Due to higher operating pressures, if the .30 Mauser cases are fired with hotter 7.62x25 loads in the CZ-52, it will tear the neck off some cases. 30 Mauser O.A.L. is .980" to .985" while 7.62x25 O.A.L. is .958" to .962".
9X21 (Small Pistol primer) .824"-.829" O.A.L.
Designed for use in countries that banned the use of handguns in military chamberings, the 9x21mm required only minor chamber reaming of firearms built for 9x19mm.
9MM+P has no difference from the standard 9mm Luger other than headstamp designation for load segregation. Due to standard case design, it will handle +P pressures with no problems.
9MM LARGO (Small Pistol primer) .896"-.904" O.A.L.
The 9mm Largo is a 9x23 case designed for Largo gun systems such as the Star, Astra, Destroyer Carbine, and also works in most Steyrs.
9MM Makarov, or 9X18mm, uses a .363" diameter bullet. Used in the small Makarov surplus pistols that are readily available now in the United States.
9MM SUPER COMP (Small Rifle or Pistol primer) .894"-.899" O.A.L.
The 9mm Super Comp (9x23) is of a new design with a new head stamp as of 7-7-03. We have changed the head stamp to read 9x23 Comp to allow easier identification because it looked too similar to the .38 Super Comp head stamp. At the same time, we slightly changed the interior design to allow the seating of heavier bullets (i.e. 147 grains) but change will in no way affect performance of case for use with lighter bullets.
Basically a lengthened 9mm Luger, the 9mm Winchester Magnum was developed for use in the Wildey semi-automatic handgun. This cartridge develops near .357 Magnum performance but is generally used for making 9mm Luger blanks.
