Reloading .45 Colt demands quality brass that'll hold up through multiple loadings without sacrificing accuracy. Hornady 8780 unprimed .45 Colt (LC) handgun brass cartridge cases give you the foundation for consistent, reliable handloads. Whether you're loading for a Cowboy Action competition revolver, a lever-action rifle, or a modern single-action, starting with precision brass means your attention stays on load development instead of chasing case-to-case inconsistencies.
Hornady manufactures these cases to tight tolerances that matter. Uniform case wall thickness—something benchrest and precision shooters have relied on for decades—translates directly to consistent pressure curves and velocity. Tight wall concentricity ensures your bullets seat uniformly, which reduces runout and promotes reliable chamber fit and consistent ignition. That consistency is what separates good handloads from ones you actually trust.
These unprimed cases come ready for your reloading setup. Because Hornady treats brass as a foundation, not a commodity, you'll get more reliable reloads per case. That means lower per-round costs over the life of the brass and fewer surprises downrange. Every case in the lot is virtually identical in weight and capacity, so your load data stays valid shot to shot.
This 100-count box is sized for handloaders who want to test loads, build a fresh inventory, or stock up on a caliber that spans everything from single-action revolvers to .45 Colt rifles. If you're serious about .45 Colt reloading, starting with Hornady brass is a smart move.

Yes. .45 Colt brass works in both revolvers and lever-action rifles that chamber .45 Colt. Always verify your firearm's specifications and follow safe reloading practices for your specific platform.
Hornady manufactures their brass to deliver more reloads per case than commodity alternatives. The number of reloads depends on your loads, inspection practices, and handling, but quality brass like Hornady's is built to withstand multiple loadings.
No. These are unprimed cases. You'll need to add primers during your reloading process according to your load data and reloading equipment.
Uniform case wall thickness helps ensure consistent powder capacity and pressure development. This translates to more predictable velocity and better accuracy across your handloads, which is why precision shooters have long prioritized it.
