    Huge Primer Flash Hole

    I was sorting out what I thought was already sorted out Winchester brass when I noticed a big difference between the flash holes.



    Maybe this explains that unexplainable flyer.

    They are 45 ACP brass with headstamp of "Winchester"

      I remember in a post somewhere else where it was mentioned that depending on the production cycle or year the brass was made some used magnum or larger primers. What does the primer pocket look like?... are they all uniform and only the flash holes different?

          Never thought about someone having these for their rubber bullet practice load. I'll have to get me some of those plastic bullets, I remember how much fun they were.

          I will have to check it out when I have time to look for my 45 ACP shell holder. I look earlier, but it wasn't in the 45 ACP reloading die box.

          You know that has to land at least 6 inches low and a bit to left due to the faster velocity.


          See the two out of the 10 ring? That's gotta be them.
