Low volume odd ball stuff is not being manufactured with the curr4ent overwhelming demand. The manufacturers get to pick the products to produce that will make money the fastest.

We buy it up and make it into .338 Edge.

Bertram has been running tonnes of it. Probably for a US contract.

I have a bag of 50 that I bought at a gun show years ago if that will help. Send me a PM if interested.

It is probably in the "seasonal" category and they only run it once a year. Like .458 and others. Hope you find some.

Seen some of the stuff coming from the US these days? I've got some Rem 375RUM brass, and the Bertram seems to measure up more consistent on the rims, but shoulder is not as well defined. At half the price of Remington locally, I'll give them a try.

I've been seeing it more available from Nosler Custom lately....spendy but great quality.

Haven't seen Remington in a while.

Cheers,

Dan

Actually,
the Bertram brass for .338 Edge cost $300.00 for 100 pieces here in the USA and it is way far better then Remington brass. If you can get 300 RUM Bertram brass at half the cost of Remington, then I will buy them from you.

We have 5 gallon buckets at our range for people to put unwanted brass in instead of throwing it in the trash cans.

There are some people who go to the range almost every day just to get the brass out of the buckets, then they sell it at the scrap yard. thumbdown

I couldn't believe it the other day when I looked in one bucket and there was a new Remington box with 17 .300 RUM cases in it. The box even still had the Remington DVD in it.

After a quick pass over my long taper .375 expanding die, I now have 17 more .375 RUM cases. dancing

I have not seen any RUM cases in any store for several years.
