activeviii Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 any one have some 222 cases around. i have been given some but their a mixture but at the same time i dont want so sound ungrateful. but it all helps me learn about reloading. I have been loading my old PPU brass but it is all on its last legs now. i have a few bits of FC and WIN SUP. I like to be able to recycle so willing to take any brass in 222, at lest i make a batch then. thought i was ask before i go buy some PPU cases thanks for looking Phil.

Mr_Logic Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 I'd just get some prvi cases, they're good enough for most jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activeviii Posted September 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) yes, but if people have odd cases kicking around then they will do the job as well. I did say if no one has any i will go buy PPU cases. recycle recycle recycle. so i keep being told Phil.

Mr_Logic Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 But you need quantity, can't do 10 here, 10 there and expect accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activeviii Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 But you need quantity, can't do 10 here, 10 there and expect accuracy. If i can get 10 here and 10 there of the same then full length and trim then they will be fine. I'm not a paper puncher, i shoot rabbit, fox so as long as they shoot with in and 1" then they are fine for what i need. Plus the .222 if one of the most forgiving rounds there is for reloading. thanks for your input anyway. still looking for any brass gents if possible PLEASE PLEASE all the best Phil.

I shoot rabbit and fox too. Different brands of brass together have different zero points. Gotta be the same brand at least! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprags Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 My advice would be buy some new brass, as Ackley has pointed out, it ain't too expensive Inconsistent brass will lead to inconsistent accuracy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activeviii Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Im not going to argue with you all, i cant be doing it at the moment. Im just trying to get some brass so i can shoot a little longer before i have to possibly give up all shooting stuff. if you wish to send me £28 then i will gladly take it and then still ask for some old 222 cases, because at this moment in time i havent even 28p. i have just over a 1/2 pot of benchmark left, 200 a-max and 100 v-max. so please do not have a go at me about rights and wrongs. Please. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 Hey come on guys, give the guy a break! So loading different makes of brass can cause an accuracy issue but I think the chap realises and accepts that! All he has done is asked if anyone has any used .222 brass and you are jumping down his neck, surely that's not what PW is about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njc110381 Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) On the other side of the coin, if you don't ask you don't get! Plenty of people just throw their brass away, especially those who shoot Prvi because it's cheap. Batch variations aren't enough to make a dangerous load if you're well within limits and it's a way of keeping going when you're desperate. I recently gave away a load of 6.5 bullets to a member of this site. I didn't know him from Adam apart from on here but I'd got to know him here and he is a decent bloke. I gave away a full box of Speer TNT, a near full box of 140gr SP, a near full box of Barnes TSX, 100 FMJ's and some Nosler BT's. Total that up and it's worth easily over £100? Who cares, I didn't want them and he did. Spend your life fussing about money and you'll die rich and sad. It feels good to help people out. EDIT... Spot on Frenchie - my point exactly.
