The exception to this was a recent 45-70 order that took a little over 4 weeks. Last year I ordered 38 Super+P, 41 Magnum, 222 Remington and 41 Magnum all backordered and all arrived in a week or so. lightman

The 250 45-70 brass I bought from SL should last well past me when loaded at moderate cast bullet levels. Keep them annealed, and the rim will wear out first. All kidding aside, it helps the Starline brass seal up with low-pressure loads. I've stocked enough .45-70 that I doubt I'll run out. I still load some semi-sporty loads for levers, but also shoot a Uberti reproduction Highwall a lot, using loads that are BP duplication. I also have enough .460 Rowland, .45 Super, .45 +P, and .30 Carbine to last awhile.

Now I might wait until the lawn has been recently mowed and just grab the obvious ones. I'm a really frugal (cheap) guy. This is a big change for me Please don't feed the trolls!

I love starline pistol brass and have used it for years. Now I've been stocking up on their rifle stuff too. I've bought decent amounts of 223, 6 arc, 6 Creedmoor, 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 grendel, 7-08, 30-06, 350 legend, 358 win, 444, and 45/70. All have been great. Bb

It has to be a good business model to be able to have most of a production run sold before you start up the line As far as I know they never raised their prices either. I think your problem was probably due to ordering unique cartridges. It sure was. So there's a caveat to tikkanut's message. They sure won't be filling my backorder for 348 Win or 445 Supermag in any days coming soon. Medics bury their mistakes..
