Split Casings… Factory Ammo
Went to the range and shot about 30 rounds of Winchester Super X 454. It is a reduced recoil factory load that runs a 250 XTP at 1350 fps. Accuracy was great with multiple revolvers, no case extraction issues.
Upon inspection of the brass I noticed that 3 of the cases had split. I have run hundreds and hundreds of hot hand loads in Starline brass without splitting a case so I was a little surprise. Anyone else have this experience with factory ammo?

I've only ever had that happen with older Remington 125gr 357 Magnum ammo. Since you've been shooting it with other ammo, I'd say it probably has something to do with the brass rather than the gun. Winchester could probably be persuaded to give you your money back.
