Building accurate handloads for your 40 S&W starts with quality brass, and Hornady's unprimed cases give reloaders the foundation they need for consistent, reliable ammunition. This 100-count pack of 40 S&W brass is designed for shooters who demand precision—whether you're working up loads for competition, duty carry, or personal defense. Hornady manufactures to tight tolerances across wall thickness and case concentricity, which means less sorting, better uniformity, and more predictable results downrange.

What sets Hornady brass apart is the attention to detail most reloaders never see: every case in the lot is held to the same exacting standards, so your case-to-case pressure and velocity spreads stay tight. This consistency translates to tighter groups and fewer surprises when you're testing loads or pushing for accuracy. If you've reloaded budget brass before, you'll notice the difference in how Hornady cases handle repeated firing and resizing—they're built to last through multiple reloading cycles without premature failure.

For handgun reloaders serious about 40 S&W ammunition, whether for high-round-count practice or precision work, unprimed brass from a maker known for quality control is a smart investment. The 100-count quantity is a practical size for testing loads or building a manageable batch of ammunition without overcommitting components.

Can I use these cases for reloading my 40 S&W handgun?

Yes. These are unprimed brass cases designed specifically for 40 S&W reloading. You'll need to add primers, powder, and bullets to complete the cartridge.

How many times can I reload these cases?

Hornady brass is manufactured for durability and longevity through multiple reloading cycles. The exact number of reloads depends on your specific load data, firearm, and reloading practices.

What's the difference between Hornady brass and cheaper alternatives?

Hornady maintains tight tolerances on wall thickness and concentricity, and ensures consistent weight and capacity across each lot. This uniformity reduces case-to-case variation in pressure and velocity, leading to better accuracy and more reliable performance.

Does this pack include primers?

No. These are unprimed cases only. You'll need to purchase primers separately to complete your reloading process.
