Yup you are right about Starline,it is good brass & I am using some allready,I search for QC brass because I think it might give me a few more grains of capacity,maybe 3 to 5 more.

I use Winchester 348 brass and CH4D expander to open the neck. Very good brass with long life. I load 63 grains of 3031 with a 400 grain gas check bullet for about 2150 fps.

Do you know what the winchester brass has for H2o case capacity?

I use WW 348 brass with bullseye and corn meal to form the 450 Alaskan. Never lost a case as long as new brass is used. Using an expander often results in an uneven length neck. The firerorm method does not have this problem. I like 3031 with the 400 grain Speer for a using load.
