Hornady Unprimed Brass Handgun Cartridge Cases .38 Super Comp 200/ct
Reloaders serious about .38 Super Comp ammunition know that consistency starts with the brass. Hornady unprimed brass handgun cartridge cases are engineered for shooters and handloaders who demand uniformity and longevity from their components. This 200-count box of .38 Super Comp cases gives you the foundation for accurate, reliable loads whether you're prepping for competition or precise range work.
Hornady's approach to brass manufacturing centers on tight tolerances across every dimension that matters. Cases are measured for concentricity—the alignment of the case walls relative to the centerline—because even small deviations affect how a bullet seats in both the case and your firearm's chamber. Uniform wall thickness is equally critical; variations here throw off internal capacity and, with it, consistent powder charges and pressures. By controlling these variables, Hornady brass helps you achieve the velocity and accuracy potential your load development deserves.
Beyond the specs, these cases are built to last. Hornady treats brass as the foundation of a quality cartridge, not a consumable commodity, which means you'll get more reliable reloads per case before it's time to retire it. Every case in this lot is held to the same strict standards, so whether you're loading round one or round ten from the same case, you're working with nearly identical internal capacity and weight. That consistency translates directly to tighter shot groups and more predictable performance at the bench or in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is .38 Super Comp ammunition used for?
.38 Super Comp is commonly loaded for competitive shooting sports and target work where precision and consistency are paramount.
Do these cases come primed?
No, these are unprimed cases. You'll need to source primers separately for your reloading process.
How many times can I reload these cases?
Hornady brass is designed and manufactured to provide multiple reloads when handled with proper care. The exact number depends on your load data, firing pressures, and inspection practices.
Why does case concentricity matter for handgun loads?
Tight concentricity ensures the bullet seats evenly in both the case and your firearm's chamber, promoting uniform bullet release on firing and better velocity consistency—both critical for accuracy.
