I just got off the phone with a lady at Starline and she said they were going to do a production run of 45-70 brass at the end of this week. For those of you who need some, you might call and get your order in and receive some of this run.

Just saw today that Buffalo Arms is offering Remington 45/70 brass, too.

IF, they are Starline. You had better anneal the necks before firing.

Re: Starline 45-70 Brass
I received mine the day before yesterday. I've been using Winchester in the past, however, I'm impressed with Starline's quality. I just wish they would make them full length instead of the 5 to 10 thousandth short. That will be more when I fireform them. I guess I'll have to break out Coltsmoke's case stretcher.

Anneal'em, shoot'em and I'll bet you won't need to stretch anything.Jody Reb wrote:I received mine the day before yesterday.
