Description

The .220 Swift has earned its reputation as the speed king of the .22 centerfires, and brass this good is exactly where an accurate load begins. Hornady produces these unprimed cases to tight tolerances with uniform wall thickness, consistent weight, and matched internal capacity, so every case in the box behaves the same when you work up a charge. For a cartridge famous for pushing 40 to 55 grain pills past 4,000 fps, that kind of case-to-case uniformity pays off in tighter groups and more predictable pressure.

What Sets This Hornady .220 Swift Brass Apart

Hornady runs these cases in smaller lots and holds them to strict quality standards. They measure for tight wall concentricity, which helps the bullet seat straight in both the case and the chamber for a more uniform release on firing. They also put the brass through a pressure calibration test to confirm consistent case expansion when the round goes off. The result is a foundation you can trust when you're chasing one-hole groups out in the prairie dog town.

Prepping Your .220 Swift Cases for the First Load

Like any new rifle brass, these benefit from a little prep before they ever see powder. Chamfer and deburr the case mouths inside and out, and a light pass through your sizing die with the expander ball will true up the necks nicely. Remember the .220 Swift is a semi-rimmed design, so pay attention to your headspace and keep your case lube dialed in. Do that and this brass will reward you with plenty of reloading life.

These ship as new, unprimed cases, so bring your own primers, powder, and bullets. Whether you're feeding a classic Model 70, a Ruger No. 1, or a Remington 700 varmint rifle, this is quality brass from a name reloaders have leaned on for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this Hornady .220 Swift brass primed or unprimed?

These are brand new, unprimed cases, so there's no primer installed and no powder or bullet. You'll supply your own primers, powder, and projectiles to build your loads. This is reloading component brass, not loaded ammunition.

Do I need to prep this .220 Swift brass before reloading?

Yes, a quick prep is smart with any new rifle brass. Chamfer and deburr the case mouths inside and out, and run them through your sizing die with the expander ball to true up the necks. Keep the necks lightly lubed so they don't stretch during that first pass.

What bullet weights work well in the .220 Swift?

The .220 Swift is flexible and commonly loaded with bullets from 40 to 60 grains, with 50 and 55 grain varmint bullets being popular choices. Factory rifles typically use a 1-in-14 twist that favors the lighter to mid weight bullets. Check your rifle's twist rate and consult a current load manual to match your bullet to your barrel.

How many cases come in a box of this Hornady .220 Swift brass?

Each box contains 50 new unprimed cases. Hornady produces these in smaller lots and inspects them for wall concentricity and consistent case expansion, so you get uniform brass across the whole box.
