Brass Buffet "all you can eat"



I went to the Shooting Range today and it was like a brass buffet. Every novice shooter in the world was there with their new guns,,,, and boxes and boxes of new ammo. Most didn't think about picking up those worthless empty brass things.

Just a heads up- This is the time of the years to grab the new range brass !

Yep - one of the first things I do at the range is kinda look around and check out who is using what. I keep my eye out for the guys who never considered reloading......buys that nice new loaded box of 30-30s, .300 WM, .243, 22-250 and several others I don't need.............yet and carefully puts them back in the box and pitches them in the barrel. Normally the range officer will tell me who 'isn't savin their brass' and he lets me collect what I want.
I got sandwich bags full of all kinds of stuff.....batched just like I do my own loads.

Most of that stuff I can usually use. The .204 stuff will go to my next barrel project for my TC, .243 makes good .260 Rem. brass and .357/.38 all work in my Max. but you never know.
