I called Starline a few weeks ago asking what it would take to get some 40Super brass. They said $3000.00 would do it. They would make 45000, send me 30000, and place the remaining 15000 pieces in stock.

I assume there are probably 30 or more resellers and shooters out there who could use a little extra 40Super brass.

I placed an order for 1000 pieces about 6 months ago. At the time they said the had one other back order of 1000. I called last month and they didn't have my order on file... ?? Oh well. So I bought a case of Triton Hi-Vel 135gr 40Super from Monte Levine Inc instead.

http://www.redding-reloading.com is making 40Super dies.

http://www.ch4d.com will make them also.

RCBS makes them on special order, 15week delivery. I know 'cause that's where I got mine.

http://www.barsto.com and http://www.kkmprecision.com make barrels for the 40Super.

I use a Sprinco-Corbon compound recoil rod assembly in my Glock21 to help prevent frame battering. The secondary spring on the Sprinco unit absorbs something like 650fpe from the slide at about the time the spent case is being ejected.

I just ordered a box of 40Super ammo from Lone Wolf Distributors: http://www.lonewolfdist.com/stockdetail.asp?item=PRE-40SP135HP
Notice the specs shown on that page? Same as Triton Hi-Vel. I wonder if this Precision Ammo version is new or repackaged Triton.

any new news on the availability of .40 super brass?

I was chatting at Mike McNett of DoubleTap Ammo the other day about his soon to be released .45Colt offerings and while getting an earfull asked him how he was coming on his plans for 40Super and 450SMC. He paused just briefly to say he'd placed an order for .40 Super brass and then dove back into the .45Colt subject. He says he'll have the .45Colt listed on his website, http://doubletapammo.com , by early August if not sooner.

I don't shoot the 180's or 200's but as I recall they both are supersonic out of the 40Super.

Nowlin Guns will modify your 1911 .45 to handle 40Super: http://www.nowlinguns.com/merchant2/merchant.mv

LoneWolf Distributing sells 40Super supplies. The website has a search function which will produce a list of all their 40Super goodies if you type 40 Super into the blank: http://www.lonewolfdist.com

Here's a couple items Lonewolf sells:
http://www.lonewolfdist.com/stockdetail ... =SPR-16674
http://www.lonewolfdist.com/stockdetail ... -40SP155HP

Starline sells brass: http://www.starlinebrass.com/pricelist.html

The SMC in 450SMC means Small Magnum Cartridge. The brass is similar in design to 40Super except it uses bullets made for 45ACP and will chamber in a standard .45 Pistols. Rumor has it DoubleTapAmmo may be adding both 40Super and 450SMC to its product line-up. http://www.doubletapammo.com/php/catalog/index.php

If you buy into 40Super and want to handload, use 400Corbon as a starting point. I found that load data in the Accurate Arms guide: http://www.accuratepowder.com/data/PerC ... 40Cal(10mm)/400%20Corbon%20pages%20119%20and%20120%20Handgun.pdf
