Hornady 86263 Unprimed Brass Cases 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser 50ct

The Hornady 86263 unprimed brass cases deliver consistent wall thickness and precise dimensions for handloaders working with the classic 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser cartridge. Each case undergoes multiple quality inspections to ensure uniform capacity and reliable chambering across bolt-action rifles.

What Makes This Different

Hornady's proprietary brass alloy provides optimal hardness for multiple reloading cycles while maintaining dimensional stability under pressure. The cases feature consistent neck tension and flash hole diameter, eliminating variables that affect accuracy in precision shooting applications. Factory annealing creates uniform case mouth hardness, reducing split necks during bullet seating compared to budget alternatives.

Key Features

• Consistent wall thickness within 0.001" for uniform powder capacity
• Proper headspace dimensions for reliable chambering in Swedish Mauser rifles
• Factory annealed case mouths prevent cracking during bullet seating
