I'm just curious.
thanks

I've been through large amounts of both (in the thousands). Starline is much more consistent in weight, i.e. more consistent case capacity. I've found Hornady to be at the bottom of the class in that respect across multiple calibers. Starline's weakness is loosening primer pockets while Hornady's is splitting necks. Makes it a bit of a choose your poison scenario. The consistent case capacity as well as cost make Starline the "lesser evil" to me since we don't really have a "premium" supplier these days.
Let's go Brandon!
