Hunter Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 And? Im thinking of selling a few boxes of once fired .222 brass. It always sells for a couple of quid.. beer tokens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham M Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 The eejits who buy this stuff must know sod-all about shooting or re-loading, but just think it’s cool to own a few empty cases to show their mates. A friend just sent off to America for some cases and included 200 Hornet cases for me…….£16 INCLUDING THE POSTAGE.. G.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always sells for a couple of quid.. beer tokens I guess it depends how much value you put on your time, taking photo's, doing the listing, answering the invetiable stupid questions, packing it up, going to the post office, doing the feedback thing etc etc - all for a couple of quid?? I will probably be at Bisley next weekend, I will think of you as I look into the bins stuffed with 100's of once fired brass Heh, maybe we could go into business, we could make, err pounds....

Are you getting or have a .22 Hornet Graham? Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham M Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Got one now Frank. It's an old ****** (BSA) but I think I can get it to shoot reasonably well. Tried it out last week for the first time using some ammo that was given to me and was astonished at how quiet it was. Just the ticket for shooting on my local farm as it will shoot foxes as well as bunnies, and using less powder than my old .357 magnum it is cheap to run as well. G.M.

As they say, suit yourself If theres money to be made from something that will otherwise be scrap, then im the one making it. Plenty of people as said above, know nothing about reloading, and will pay good money for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Well good luck with it Hunter. As it stands the .308 brass is up for a whopping 99p (if anyone bids) Mind you he may make 10 or 15p on the postage as well And those figures are of course gross, he has to take his costs of the listing etc out of that.

Hunter Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 I dont plan to turn it into a business Just flog them when I have a whole load. But at the rate of my shooting, that may take a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted February 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 I would hang on to your brass Hunter. When I got my first c/f rifle I had no intention of reloading at all, but I kept all my good quality brass (Federals) just in case. I have started reloading now and have 200+ decent cases of each calibre to play with :blink: Edit: I just checked the ebay sale, he 'made' 99p - very sad indeed . .

I have got mostly nickel cases, Winchester Silvertip. Not sure if these are any good for reloading? My plan is to only reload in a larger callibre such as .243 or 6.5 (when the time comes) as I dont use the .222 enough to justify reloading yet. No harm done in leaving the cases at the back of the draw for now though :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
