During the last century, if the brass cases have been subjected to black powder and/or corrosive primers, and improperly cleaned, they might not hold up. I would not not recommend using them for hand loading. They are nice collectibles.

Sorry I fell off the earth.

As to price, I'm at a loss. I haven't found any comparables. My greeners have averaged around $10ea and they are around, but I've never seen one marked Winchester. Are they worth $30ea?

I'm not sure they would mix in well if you're having custom cases made, as these would take different size wads than RMC use.

I agree that they are more of a collectable and are not advertised as safe to shoot. They may be fine, but I can't guarantee it.

Thank you. I'll have to pass.

Maybe they're $5ea. Hell I don't know. My original intent was to find a value / collectors market. I know they're not common, or there would be more about them than a reference to a catalog on a web search.

I'm not good at putting thoughts & ideas into words.

I have no idea of the actual market value but I'd gladly give $20 for one just for the 'cool' value of it sitting on my loading bench.
