Starline 223 Brass - Case Capacity Warning
This guide details how to assess the case capacity of Starline .223 Remington brass, a critical factor for reloaders. The video highlights that Starline .223 brass has a lower water capacity (29.3-29.6 grains) compared to Lake City brass (30.4 grains). This difference can lead to powder compression or overflowing when using maximum charges of certain powders like Hodgdon Varget, as demonstrated with a 27.5-grain charge for 55gr bullets. Despite this, the quality of Starline brass, including clean flash holes and consistent primer pockets, is praised.
