The Hornady 8646 unprimed brass cases deliver consistent performance for 7mm-08 Remington handloaders seeking precision ammunition components. These cases provide the foundation for accurate, reliable cartridges whether loading for hunting, target shooting, or competition use.
What Makes This Different
Hornady brass cases undergo multiple quality control inspections during manufacturing to ensure uniform wall thickness and internal capacity. The brass alloy composition maintains optimal hardness for multiple reloading cycles while resisting case head separation. Each case features precise flash hole drilling and consistent primer pocket dimensions that standard factory brass often lacks.
Key Features
- Uniform wall thickness ensures consistent powder capacity and bullet seating depth
- Premium brass alloy construction rated for 8-12 reloading cycles with proper sizing
- Precise flash hole diameter of .080 inches for reliable ignition
- Consistent primer pocket depth eliminates primer seating variations
- Factory-annealed case necks provide proper bullet tension without splitting
- Trimmed to SAAMI specification length of 2.035 inches
- Compatible with all standard 7mm-08 Remington chamber specifications
These cases perform reliably across temperature ranges from -20°F to 120°F without dimensional changes that affect accuracy. The 7mm-08 Remington chambering works effectively for medium game hunting at ranges up to 400 yards, precision rifle competition, and varmint hunting applications. Case neck tension remains consistent through multiple firing and sizing cycles, maintaining bullet seating force within 2-3 pounds variation.
