$72.86
Hornady unprimed brass rifle cartridge cases in .416 Ruger are engineered for handloaders who demand consistency and longevity from their brass. Whether you're building precision loads for long-range hunting, competition shooting, or developing your own ammunition, starting with quality unprimed cases is foundational to accuracy and case life. This 50-count box gives you the raw material to create cartridges tailored to your rifle and your performance goals.
Hornady manufactures their brass to exacting tolerances, with particular attention to concentricity and case wall thickness—two factors that directly influence how your bullets seat, how they release upon firing, and ultimately how consistently your ammunition performs. Tighter concentricity helps ensure proper bullet seating in both the case and the chamber, which supports uniform velocity and better accuracy. Uniform case wall thickness, prized by benchrest and precision shooters for decades, reduces variance in powder capacity and pressure, shot to shot. The result is brass that reloads multiple times without degradation, stretching your dollar and your supply.
.416 Ruger is a cartridge built for serious rifle work—large-frame, magnum-class hunting and shooting. These unprimed cases are the starting point for your custom loads, ready to be primed, charged, and seated to your specifications. Store them dry and protected, and you'll have reliable brass for years of reloading.

Frequently Asked Questions
What caliber is this brass, and what rifle does it fit?
.416 Ruger is a magnum rifle cartridge designed for large-frame rifles chambered in .416 Ruger. If you're unsure whether your rifle is chambered for this round, check your owner's manual or contact the manufacturer.
Do these cases come primed?
No, these are unprimed cases. You will need to add primers during your reloading process, along with powder and bullets, to complete your ammunition.
How many times can I reload this brass?
Hornady brass is built for multiple reloads. The exact number depends on your load data, firearm, and how carefully you manage cases during the reloading process. Proper care—inspecting for cracks, annealing when needed, and not overpressuring—will extend case life significantly.
Why does case wall thickness matter for reloading?
Uniform case wall thickness ensures consistent powder capacity and pressure from one cartridge to the next. This consistency translates directly to more uniform velocities and tighter accuracy, which is why precision shooters prioritize it.
