Winchester WSC243WSSU unprimed brass cases deliver the precision foundation serious handloaders demand for their 243 Winchester Super Short Magnum cartridges. Each case undergoes Winchester's multi-stage quality control process to ensure consistent wall thickness and proper headspace dimensions. The 50-count packaging provides an economical solution for volume reloaders who prioritize reliability over quantity.
What Makes This Different
Winchester brass cases feature proprietary annealing processes that create uniform grain structure throughout the case body and neck. This controlled manufacturing approach produces brass with consistent hardness levels, reducing case splitting during sizing operations. Independent testing shows Winchester 243 WSSM cases maintain dimensional stability through multiple reload cycles, with average case life extending 15-20% beyond standard brass offerings.
