[donnelly317]

Just throwing this out there. Im looking for brass. Got a reloader gonna be reloading and really getting into shooting. Looking for. .223, .40 sw, .357, 9mm, and 44 mag. I know times are tough but I figured id just throw this out there:th_biggun:

 

[dannymax]

Yup...me too! But no conflict cause I'm looking for .45 brass.

I just found a local FB page that is pretty active with guns and accesories. The guy that started it is also a FFL, CCW Instructor, and home defense advisor. They quite often have brass on there, so that may be a avenue for you to check out.(as in a local FB page)

I might be competing with ya on the .45 brass though. If I find a good deal I'll split it with ya!unk:

Brass is the new gold... Glad I got into reloading awhile ago because I already have a pretty good pile but with ammo drying up its gonna get a lot harder to come by.. Unfortunately everything you listed is pretty hard to come by except for the .40 s&w...

Sounds like a deal....I have several hundred right now but always in the market for more. These damn automatics fling them all over the place and soon's they hit the ground they disappear! I don't understand that! :ummm:

Primers are my big problem right now....got 300 or so but a couple days at the range will eat them up. I suppose production will catch back up by summer tho....hoping it does anyhow. Not sure where brass will go.....:confused2:

Yea primers are still in decent supply here but I'm thinking about stocking up.. I see the government is scrapping spent military brass again even after they were told to stop doing that and to sell it to reloading supply companies... I'll look for a link...

Sucks a guy at my work gave away 1200 rounds of. 45 brass a week before I asked him.. I don't have pistol permit yet but I plan on getting it soon. I know I want a .40 and a 44mag that's why I asked for them. I was hoping someone goes to ranges and picks up the brass lol

Bahaha snow is melting here. Tomorrow im going to a couple ranges see if I cab hit gold! Lol

i had hundreds of 45 acp brass......pitched it all in the trash several years ago:bang head:....i was gettin the ammo so chaep i never thought about it:confused2:

i love reloading tho...my dad and i spent countless hours at the bench in my younger days. i have several hundred .270 win rounds we loaded back in the eighties. i may take it up again myself. my browning blr in .270 short mag. is mighty spensive to shoot factory ammo.

folks are hoarding 223 and 5.56 good luck with that!!!:rofl_200:

 

[srk468]

I reload .44 mag, .40 s&w, and .223 rem for savings and I like to shoot... I reload my .308 for precision because my ammo is way more accurate out of my Remington 700 sps and I still haven't perfected it yet, 3 round groups is 1 ragged hole at 200 meters :eusa_dance:

 

[twistedmax]

I've got a couple BIG BRASS BALLS, but I'm not willing to give them up just quite yet!:rofl_200::rofl_200::rofl_200:

Man, that ain't right!! They say the sale of expended brass would be a 'drop in the bucket'....maybe so but it's a hell of a lot bigger 'drop' than shredded brass sold for scrap!

Once fired .45 brass probly goes outta Ft Drum by the 10 wheeler!

Shit, it's only taxpayer money....plenty more where that came from!

Slightly off topic but I went to a gun range today with some of the local IBEW guys and they had 250 rd packs of factory loaded brass cartridge .40 S&W for $70 bucks.

I think just like back in 1994 once the panic is off production will catch up and prices will go back down since probably all that has a hope in hell of passing is capacity and background check laws.

Damn I'd snap that up in a heartbeat!!
