Yes... Winchester and remington brass seem to hold up fine, I dont know about Fed 45-70 brass... I have never tried it. I am not sure what you mean by "high pressure" but these two will not unglue under any reasonable high pressure. Starline will be comming out with a "magnum" brass for the 45-70... should be released within a month. | |||

I agree with everything Trapper said. Current 45-70 brass is 45-70 brass - at least the regular Remington, Winchester, etc. There is a company that makes really hot ammunition for the lever guns, and, because of nature of shells in a magazine tube, they are now manufacturing their brass with a small primer instead of a large primer. Their selling point is that the small primer will not be as likely to be set off by the flat point of the shell behind it. Their ammunition is VERY expensive. I reload my own and see no need to use their type of brass. Remington and Winchester will do me just fine. Best wishes, | ||
