    No I just buy the regular un-plated stuff from them.
    I am sure if it is Starline brass it will be good
    A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

      I use it when I go out to BLM lands and ranges I am not too familiar with because it helps me identify/find my brass with a little more ease. Yes, it is possible to have other shooters shooting nickle ammo but that is why I do my scouting first. My understanding is that it is a bit more brittle and does not withstand as many reloadings.

        No point, in my view. If I want nickel-plated brass, there's plenty of Winchester cases out there for that. Starline is about case durability, and nickel-plating does compromise that somewhat, though you still can get a bunch of loads out of nickel-plated cases.

          Better send me a couple hundred samples of this suspected nickel plated brass for destruction
          testing purposes only. We will get back to you with the results, later on.

            I use it to identify hot loads in calibers which have guns not designed for hot loads (such as 45 Colt).

            Nickle also holds up better in leather cartridge belts.

              I use the Starline nickle cases for loading defensive carry ammo because it stays cleaner. I use Starline brass cases for the ammo that I reload repeatedly. Nickle will start to flake from the case mouth after only a few loadings.
