Thread: Should I avoid Hornady brass?

no offence taken @Jus none at all
now its been brought up before re hornady factory loadings.....pretty sure it was a 7prc of very similar someone took a few rounds apart and found large differences in powder weights...... also different powders in different batches...from personal experience with mates .308w and superpreformance factory loads the ywere wickedly hot and inconsistant.
the only issue Ive had was with primer pockets being crimped and a simple twirl with case debur tool fixes that...
there is also more than one batch /type of brass in hornady factory rounds,different headstamps in same calibre but different batches
its been touched on before with quality dropping across the board with factories running at full capacity trying to keep up/maximise profits/make hay while sun shines..... suggestions the barnes monos were suffering same QC issues....
I lost 2 cases from box of winchester 22-250 factory loads with split necks..pissed me off as bought it specifically to gain brass....some of us do that. when youve already got lots of brass but want just a few more for a different load its not a silly way to get it.
other than for newer brass or a bargain,I havent bought factory loads for years.
