rec-baller Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 It's always worth reselling once used brass. I've just bought some to use for reloading, how many have you got and how much are uyou asking for them .? Shaun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rimotu66 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Good question Stan, Ive got a fair few kicking about now, whats the going rate guys, say for 40? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Once fired is always a risk to the buyer if it is fired in a slacker chamber than the one it is to see further use in, it might not go in the next gun even when FLS, the back end is not worked down enough by the die you see. Also "once fired" is difficult to prove for the seller and much old brass is sold off after multiple firings by the unscrupulous (you can however normally tell if brass has been in a die). This leads to the question of price I suggest around 1/3rd of the price of new brass is fair and it should come dirty never having seen the inside of a die (or worked in any way) with the original factory primer in place. Brass fired more than once should generally be just given away to friends if needed IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rimotu66 Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Mine are definitely once fired as I do not reload, thinking about it I will count up how many I have and offer them for free to anyone local, maybe do a deal to get some loaded for myself.

Guest rimotu66 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 rimotu66 Same you live so far away I would of show you the ropes of reloading Very nice offer I do have a friend who would show me and I have done a few when I had my old Tikka, I just do not think it is worth it for the amount I use my rifle, if I was able to afford more stallking then maybe I would load my own.
