just checking what the going rate was for spent brass? 30-06
I just picked up over 200rnds from a shooting buddy, and we worked out 4 cents a case..
it's once fired milsurp, looks like more greek perhaps, crimped primer. gun range pickup. is possibly late 60's manufacturer. this is likely the same style of brass I got earlier .. we/he picks up range brass.. mostly we shoot together but sometimes he heads up without me as he lives much closer. we pick up as much as we can find, first come first serve.. we usually trade amongst ourselves or to other range people that reload.. but when nothing to trade, we usually do some sort of small cash deal to make up for the time... it is tedius picking up range brass at the end of the day after shooting and already grabbing all your brass, especially when the suns going down and the stomache is growling.. ... i had gotten about 50 rounds of this stuff a few weeks ago.. was a bit of work reaming the crimp out and whatnot.. but it cleaned up real nice in the vibro tumbler. one good thing is you can tell it's 1 use, as all the primer crimps are intact, none have been reamed out.. so it has not been reloaded before. it's boxer primed, and no cases exhibit any corrosion, etc. someone at the range must have a ton of this stuff and is shooting it up ALOT. After trying to research the headstamps last time to figure out what it was I was reminded by same friend that i had a good deal of milsurp and other assorted ammo from a bulk purchase we went in on.. 3 of us.. back in 08 bought about a 1/4 ups truck full.. back when the 'guard changed' digging thru muy stuff I found quite a bit of greek 30-06, boxer, non corrosive, and the headstamps seem to match.. so that's what I'm guessing it is.. similar stuff.
thanks for any pricing info
( ugh.. looks like another couple days of brass prep marathon to get 30-06 done.. again. I think I'll have 600 rounds when this is processed... ugh.. gotta quit saying yes when people offer me spent brass... )
