Does anyone have any leads where I could find 100 pieces of unfired 40-82 W.C.F. brass with the correct caliber headstamp? Have already checked Track of the Wolf, Buffalo Arms, Midway and all the other usual suspects with no luck.

Thanks for the suggestion, yooper, but that is Bertram brass and I’ve read all kinds of horror stories about their 40-82 brass. Over 30% split cases, uneven case head dimensions, inconsistent primer pocket depths are a few that come to mind.

Worst case scenario is that you would have to form them from Starline 45-90 brass. I made a bunch of 40-82 brass that way with one plunge of the sizing die handle, but they were lubed with a 50-50 mix of castor oil and lanolin. Of course, they would not have the proper headstamp.
