Starline Brass 38 Short Colt Unprimed Handgun Cases - 100 Pack

Starline Brass 38 Short Colt unprimed handgun cases give reloaders a reliable foundation for assembling ammunition for this classic revolver cartridge. Whether you're building match-grade rounds for a vintage Colt or just want to reload economically, quality brass is where precision starts. Starline has earned respect in the reloading community for consistent case dimensions and reliable performance across multiple loading cycles, and these 38 Short Colt cases are no exception.

This 100-pack of unprimed cases means you're starting with a clean slate—you'll prime, charge, seat, and crimp according to your load data and equipment. That control is exactly what experienced reloaders want. Unprimed brass also gives you flexibility to match your primers to your specific powders and bullets, rather than being locked into whatever primer came pre-installed. For shooters working up custom loads or fine-tuning accuracy, that matters.

The 38 Short Colt is less common than its modern cousins, but it's still a viable round for cowboy action shooting, historical reenactment, and shooters who simply appreciate the old-school charm of a classic cartridge. Finding quality brass for niche calibers can be frustrating—Starline cases remove that friction.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is unprimed brass and why would I use it?

Unprimed brass is a cartridge case without a primer installed. It gives you the freedom to select primers that match your powder, bullet choice, and load specifications. This is especially useful when you're developing custom loads or working with ammunition for less common calibers like the 38 Short Colt, where standard factory loads may be hard to find.

How many times can I reload these cases?

Quality brass from Starline typically withstands multiple reloading cycles. However, actual case life depends on your specific loads, firing pressure, and maintenance practices. Inspect each case for cracks, splits, or other damage before every reload, and retire any that show wear.

Will these cases work in my 38 Short Colt revolver?

Yes, these are manufactured specifically for the 38 Short Colt cartridge. Always verify compatibility with your specific firearm and follow published load data for safe, accurate ammunition assembly.
