Hornerber 10.75x68 cases? Login/Join

Any ideas where to find 6 to 8 Horneber 10.75x68 cases?

I need them for mag box testing and sample.

Don't want to use Bertram cases as I trust Horneber cases for dimensional accuracy better ie.. rim thickness, diamiter & base diameter ect..

Anyone have 6 or 8 Horneber cases they would like to sell?

Allen, I have recently purchased some Bertram cases (425 and 450NE) and found them to be of quality.
On another note, the Hornerber 425 cases I use do not seem to have the correct depth of groove in front of the rim (where the extractor sips into). This groove is minimal and would not fit into a shell holder or stripper clip however I have had no extraction problems using them.
Although Hornerber quality is up there with the best, they still have faults.

Thanks for the heads up ozhunter.

The only things I have read about Bertram brass was how awful and the rim wasn't correct.

Glad to hear they are an option now.

JJ Miller is sending me a few Hornerber cases to use as dummy rounds.

Thanks again, Allen
