Hornady .22 Hornet Unprimed Brass Cartridge Cases - 50 Count

Building reliable .22 Hornet loads starts with quality brass, and Hornady .22 Hornet unprimed brass cartridge cases give you the foundation for consistent, accurate handloads. Whether you're tuning loads for a vintage varminter or a modern bench rifle, this 50-count box of unprimed cases is engineered to the tight tolerances that serious reloaders demand. Hornady manufactures these cases with concentricity and wall thickness that matter—details that translate directly to better bullet seating, uniform chamber fit, and repeatable velocity shot to shot.

Consistent case geometry and weight across every round means your pressure curves stay predictable, your groups stay tight, and you get more reloads per case before needing to retire them. That's not marketing talk—it's the result of treating brass as a precision component, not a commodity. When you're working up loads for .22 Hornet, these cases reward careful technique and attention to detail with the kind of reliability that separates good shooting from great shooting.

This is unprimed brass, so you'll need to prepare the cases and source primers separately as part of your reloading process. A 50-count box is a practical working quantity for developing loads, testing powder charges, and building your hunting or range ammunition inventory.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to do with unprimed brass before loading?

Unprimed cases require standard reloading preparation: cleaning, inspection, resizing, depriming (if previously fired), primer pocket cleaning, and potentially case trimming depending on your setup and the cases' history. You'll also need to source appropriate primers separately.

Can I reload Hornady brass multiple times?

Yes. Hornady brass is manufactured with durability in mind and is designed to be reloaded multiple times when handled correctly. Proper technique—avoiding excessive pressure, careful sizing, and regular inspection for cracks—will maximize the life of your cases.

Is this brass suitable for precision rifle shooting?

Yes. The tight tolerances in Hornady brass—including uniform wall thickness and concentricity—make it well-suited for benchrest and precision varmint rifle applications where consistency between rounds is critical to accuracy.

What's included in a 50-count box?

The box contains 50 unprimed .22 Hornet brass cases ready for your reloading process. Primers, powder, and bullets are not included and must be sourced separately.
