I reload 45LC and 454 casull so my options for finding cheap or once fired is nearly impossible. I have read good and bad about all types of brass. The top rated brass I have read on is the starline cases. I happened to run across a sale on 45lc remington cases and have had alot of luck with it so far. I bought a 1000 new cases and have to say they have done quite well for me so far. I have had 0 issues to date. Out of the bags I had one bad case out of the bunch. Well they give you a free one in every 100 count bag so I cant complain. I am loading them up HOT in Ruger only loads and they have held up extremely well.
