Hornady 300 WSM Brass Cartridge Cases

Hornady 300 WSM Brass Cartridge Cases provide unprimed brass for reloaders preparing .300 Winchester Short Magnum ammunition. Each standard pack contains 50 cases, and Hornady identifies this product as item 86701. In addition, Hornady produces its cartridge cases in smaller lots and applies strict quality standards. The manufacturer checks wall thickness, case weight, internal capacity and wall concentricity. As a result, these checks help promote consistency between cases.

For example, Hornady checks several features that affect case uniformity. These include wall thickness, weight, internal capacity and wall concentricity. Therefore, this brass is intended for reloaders who value consistency in their components. However, manufacturer quality checks do not replace inspection before use. In particular, examine each case for visible damage or defects before preparing it for loading.

Compatibility and Related Equipment

These cases are made for the .300 Winchester Short Magnum cartridge. Therefore, select dies and reloading equipment designed specifically for 300 WSM. In addition, follow current published load data for the exact components you use. Never substitute data from a different cartridge.

The Hornady L&L Classic Kit is one example of reloading press equipment available from Outdoor Guru. However, the standard kit does not include cartridge-specific dies or shell holders. Consequently, select the correct equipment for 300 WSM and confirm compatibility before use.

For further product information, consult the official Hornady Cartridge Cases page. Hornady explains its brass-production standards and case-uniformity checks there. Although these checks support consistent manufacturing, they do not remove the need for careful case preparation. For this reason, follow your reloading manual and inspect every case before loading.

Finally, use reliable, current load data for the exact cartridge and components. Moreover, inspect each case carefully before loading. If a case shows damage or unusual wear, set it aside rather than use it. Careful preparation and attention to current reloading guidance remain essential.
