I have and have used both - the only difference I see is the price. 0 -
They're both excellent. Just don't mix them up in a single batch and you'll be satisfied with either or both. 0 -
Both are very good. Starline seems to be less expencive. 0 -
Seems to me that Star Line new brass needs less work, the OAL is correct. I've always had to trim Winchester. If I have a choice, I'll buy Star Line everytime.

Starline handgun brass IMO, is superior to Winchester 0 -
I note in pistol brass the Starline is more consistent in wall thickness and OAL (as stated above). One advantage with the thinner wall Starline is that in tight chambers or a little oversize bullets you have more to "play with" on tol. Winchester brass seems a little heavier and thicker at the base, but I haven't actually measured it.
Love Winchester components, but if given the choice for a competitive load, I choose Starline. For general shooting, mix whatever your gun can shoot.0 -
I have been using starline pistol brass for 20 years; Good stuff. WW in pistol is good too.
Neww WW rifle brass is good, however, I recommend you trim to the "trim to" length before you start reloading if you want consistency. I have personally noted varing case lengths between .001 & 012 in new brass, especially the magnums.0 -
I shoot starline in my pistols. Could not be happier. 0
