Scrap Brass

What do you do with your scrap brass? I'm starting to get a collection of brass that's been rejected for reloading or cut from .223 to 300 BLK conversion.

There are apparently some folks here who know a reclamation/recycling facility that does not mandate that the reject brass be deprimed. Though I don't.

But I do know that there is pretty good money in scrap brass. :)

Tack doesn't cull anything evidently.

I just hope you don't talk in your sleep, otherwise you may end up saying the same about your gonads.

Some reloading supply places give credit for scrap brass... Top Brass was giving $2 a pound but it's now down to $1.50 a pound.

I'll get between 28 to 29 pounds in a USPS flat-rate box... costs less than $13 to ship and I get @ $42 in credit... so for each box I send I net about $30 credit... not as good as it once was... but when the brass is free who cares.

I've been getting their .308 147gr FMJ pulls and they appear excellent... I have about 2500 now with little $$ in them.

I've taken a few pounds to Leon Iron & Metals but not any year lately. I would advise that you call first and ask what they are paying and specify that what you have is "cartridge brass". The price for cartridge brass is a lot less than for other brass alloys. I don't figure it to be worth the hassle unless I have at least 100 lbs.
