Hornady Unprimed Brass Handgun Cartridge Cases .45 Auto 4500/Ct Box
$1,724.99
Building reliable .45 Auto ammunition starts with quality brass, and Hornady unprimed brass handgun cartridge cases give reloaders the foundation they need for consistent, accurate loads. This bulk box of 4500 cases is designed for shooters who demand uniformity across every round—whether you're loading for competition, duty carry, or the range. Hornady's brass goes through rigorous quality control, with attention paid to wall thickness, weight consistency, and internal capacity so that each case performs predictably.
What sets these .45 Auto cases apart is the engineering behind them. Hornady measures concentricity carefully to keep case walls true, and they pressure-calibrate their brass to ensure uniform expansion when fired. That uniformity translates directly to tighter shot groups and more reliable chambering in your firearm, since properly formed cases seat bullets correctly in both the case and chamber. For handloaders chasing consistency, that matters.
The 4500-count box is sized for serious reloaders who shoot .45 Auto regularly and want to maintain a healthy supply without constant restocking. Because these are unprimed cases, you'll load them with your choice of primers, powders, and bullets, giving you full control over your ammunition's performance and cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to do to load these unprimed .45 Auto cases?
These cases arrive without primers, so you'll need to add primers, powder, and bullets to complete your ammunition. You'll use standard .45 Auto reloading dies and equipment to resize, prime, charge, and seat the bullet.
Are these cases good for match-grade reloading?
Hornady's emphasis on uniformity in wall thickness, weight, and internal capacity supports consistent loads. The pressure calibration and concentricity control help ensure that each case performs predictably, which is valuable for competitive shooting where repeatability matters.
How many times can I reload these brass cases?
The product information provided covers the initial specifications and quality control. Brass longevity depends on your specific loads, firearm, and handling; Hornady brass is designed for reloading, but case life varies by individual reloading practices.
Will these cases work in any .45 Auto firearm?
These are standard .45 Auto cases. Proper seating and uniformity are built into Hornady's manufacturing, but always verify that your loads and ammunition function safely in your specific firearm before shooting.
