470 Capstick Brass

Are these cases good quality? Should I buy a bunch?

Thanks,

I wonder if you have misinterpreted the ad? 470 Capstick is a caliber, not a brand of brass. This is not 470 nitro express brass.

Thanks, I know it's a caliber. I searched under reloading components, brass and it returned 470 Capstick Bell cases. Should I look for 470 Capstick cases, what brands are good? Or should I just neck up 416 Rem brass.

Bell is quite good in my experience. Also, I like Huntingtons cylindrical brass which easily sizes down to 470 capstick brass.
