Starline .45-70 Government Unprimed Brass Cases – Pack of 100
Starline’s .45-70 Government brass cases are designed to be exceptionally strong, capable of handling heavy smokeless hunting loads in suitable rifles. The cases are left unprimed and stiffer than standard cases, which makes them ideal for reloaders using high-pressure smokeless powders.
For reloaders using black powder or low-pressure loads, it is recommended to anneal the case mouths to ensure proper sealing in the chamber.

I’ve been reloading .45-70 for years and these cases hold up well under heavy loads. The strength is noticeable, and they don’t deform during firing. I did have to anneal the mouths for black powder use, but it worked perfectly.
Dylan Slater –
Good quality brass with consistent dimensions. The cases are stiffer than I expected, which is good for high-pressure loads. I plan to use them for hunting and long-range shooting.

Excellent value for the pack of 100. The cases are durable and fit well in my rifle. I used them with a smokeless load and saw no issues with chamber pressure or reliability.
