scharfe
I purchased a box of 20 RCC, .32-40 cases with large rifle primer pockets about 15 years ago. I shot them in my bench rest rifle for years (breech seated  only). They have held up amazingly well. Each case has been fired with smokeless at least a couple hundred times and they look like they have plenty of life left in them. I used to run them through my case tumbler once in a while for a good cleaning.
Being turned on a lathe, cases are all the same (size, case capacity and weight). Quality IMO is first rate.
I only set them aside a few years ago when I reformed 100 StarLine .38-55s to .32-40. It's just handier to have a set of 100 for long matches. That way I don't have to prime cases during a match.

  In my opinion they are not nearly as good as drawn brass, but they are adequate.

I have some of their 40-70 Ballard. Excellent stuff. Have fired several hundred shots from one case breech seated. No problems at all.
It is pricey.

Neither had I.  But if I needed another 20 cases, I'd sure buy those before Bertram.  Bertram cases really try my patience.  To be avoided if possible.
