Title: Cheapish, .45 acp brass.
Post by: fightingquaker13 on October 07, 2012, 06:35:31 AM

A guy on another board is selling 2800 rounds of once fired Winchester brass .45 acp for $225. I thought that sounded like a good price. If you're interested PM me. I make no guarantees, caveat emptor, but I thought I should bring it to your attenion.

Thanks Watchman!

Haven't looked at .45 brass lately but I'm pretty sure it isn't that expensive.

The price of scrap brass went thru the roof.

Just a fyi.  1000  45 acp cases is about 13 #  .  Brass is about $2.25/lb right now.  Lets just say 2800 cases is 30 #  thats almost  $70   in just taking it too the scrap yard.  Let alone what it would cost to ship.

Currently for 45 ACP Once Fired Brass the price is $78-$105. The price for scrap brass plays a huge roll in 45 ACP in particular because 1000 pieces weighs about 13 pounds. Unprocessed brass is a little cheaper.

Local recycled brass company here in town.   The Brass Exchange.  Good guys.  All shooters.  They sponsor indoor matches, cause it's good for business.

$15/250 .45.  So 2,800 round ~$165.

Even though it's tough leaning over my belly, I get mine free by picking it up and scrounging at my range. I spend more time doing that than shooting.
