Caught this sorting 45ACP from 45LC today, obvious off center flashhole, a decapping pin breaker

Based on how much you had to cover - Winchester.

Bingo.   Winchester is good brass but make enough brass sooner or later a few bad ones slip through

A lot of Winchester .45 ACP was made in the Czech Republic, as was some of their other white box branded ammunition. Look for the fine print on the boxes.

I had some TZZ headstamped (Israeli IMI) .45 with offset flash holes. Not quite as bas as the OP's brass, but you got a "ping" every so often on the downstroke after decapping.

Start reloading Fiocchi .223 and you will think that flash hole is pretty well centered.

Doesn't  seem to effect anything  though.
Never seen a Winchester  case like that but I avoid  most of their newer stuff as I have reliability  problems  with it.

Winchester probably from a run of white box
