I bought some new Hornady brass several months ago, in 22 hornet. It would not eject from my Win 1885 rifle, but Win and PPU brass ejected just fine.
Just now a friend gave me several hundred pieces of mixed head stamp 22 hornet brass. I was resizing it and did not separate by brand. In the first 20, three of the brass pulled the deprime pin out of the stem on my Redding die.
I had to drive out the pin from the flash hole with a punch. It was stuck very tight. I tried a couple more Hornady brass, same result. The other brass was Win, Rem , PPU and FC. All of the non Hornady brass resized and deprimed just fine.
The Hornady brass was tossed and I sure as hell will never buy it again.
