Remington VS Winchester Brass?

I'm selling some new brass on the auction side--same amounts and price for each auction--some Winchester and some Remington. Surprisingly, the Winchester brass is garnering much more attention than the Remington variety. I've never thought there was much difference between Winchester or Remington brass--both seem to reload well and have equal life expectancies. So, this got me to wondering, is one better than the other or is one simply marketed better than the other? Why is the Winchester brass garnering 400% more watchers and bidders than Remington? Would appreciate your thoughts on Winchester VS Remington brass.

Sadly they never made an 22 Jet brass.

manufacture that controlled the process start to finish. They had their own mill for the production of ctg brass. (everyone else
bought theirs on the open market) High quality and consistency
were the norm for Winchester-Western. Today...anybody's guess.
I guess if I were bidding on your brass I'd be going for the R-P!
Remington brass is much thinner . This can result with loads that work great with Winchester becoming DANGEROUS when using Remington cases . Because the results of the thin case and the exact same outside dimensions .469 at case mouth the bullet will not be held in place. this lets the bullet move when striking the pistol feed ramp pushing the bullet base down to touch the powder charge. This can and does result in High Pressure and Kaboom of the case at the very fron of the extractor groove [V][xx(][:(][:(!] Happen twice to me before I found out the cause.[:I][:I][:I]
Best brass for me was always Norma.
Best of luck
But I must say that when I load close to max, I like the WW cases as well, they work very well for me.
