It may be a case of taking what you can get unless the supplies are opening back up. I have more WW brass fro the .45 Colt than any other, so I guess that would make me tend to lean toward WW.

If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out.

Hornady brass is a little softer but work hardens nice. I have had some very poor WW brass over the years, cases too thin, rims all different thicknesses, off center flash holes, etc, that I no longer buy it unless it is a caliber that nobody else makes.
For the .44 and .45 I buy bulk Remington brass. Federal was great when I could buy it.

I use what I can get, mostly Remington, Winchester and some starline.

If you're going to make a hole, make it a big one.

I buy Starline exclusively direct from them. Good prices and shipping is included in quantity. It is very tough stuff and has gome many, many reloads running in the 30kpsi range.
