There are two retired policemen that come to our gun club meetings. They look like professional wrestlers so I made them club Range Officers. Bill and Rick asked me if I reload and did I want some brass. The answers were yes and yes. Last week they gave me two five gallon buckets of brass. One was mixed once-fired rifle brass in .243 Win., .30-06 and .30-30 and it filled three large plastic coffee containers. The next bucket was filled with nickel brass in .38 Special and .357 Magnum. I filled five large coffee containers with .38 Special brass and one of .357 Magnum brass. Looks like a lifetime supply.

The guys said they have more brass and will bring it to me. All the best...

Good for you. Brass is now becoming very expensive.

Sounds like a winner to me. You can't go wrong with a bunch of free good quality brass! Winner winner chicken dinner!

I was at a tiny little gun show and bought some loaded 38 sp ammo. box o 125 gr jhp Rems 1/2 box same bullet but357. All for 5 bucks and he gave me 500 new primed Rem 38 spec to go with it...Fellow was older than me..Said he didn't have a handgun anymore. I do have a LOT of 38s loaded..5 ga bucket full. but hey..it sure won't go bad any time soon...and makes good trading stock. And I've been cleaning out stuff. Have found more than 2000 Mostly mil 30-06 cases.. And 900 mostly new 270 Win cases.... what to do with it??
