finally finishe dup ( again) all my 30-06 brass.. range pickups and gimme stuff. mix of commercial and mil headstamps. some with crimped primers.. some with HUGELY crimped primers.

80 mil/crimp.
148 commercial.

those are the finished #'s. had a few more of each that made it to the recycle bucket due to being berdan, or having fissures, dents, or rim damage.

got everything bagged and ready to load up as needed this winter.. setting in the box with the other finished brass I have. have a decent amt of 3006 now I think..

next up is 270 I think..

Nice.

What's your source for the .270 brass?

so far i've been saving my commercial rem/win I had been shooting, pluss whatever I could pickup at the range.. so most will be win ( price ).. and the rest i ahvn't sorted yet. I figure the range stuff will be mixed headstamps.

Not sure if there is any military application in 270.. I know when I was foing 3006 I got plenty of milsurp in there.. and thus alot of crimped primers. will see how the 270 comes out. I'm opening my bags of colelcted brass tomorrow...
