RWS 7x65R/9.3x72R Brass ???
Just at a garage sale and picked up 5 boxes of Brand new RWS 7x65R and 2 boxes of 9.3x72R brass.
Now, I've never seen a rifle in these calibers and am wondering what this brass normally sells for.
Thanks

the last RWS brass I bought was a buck a round or so.

If you want to sell some of the 7X65R, and it is indeed RWS unfired, I will buy all you want to sell at a reasonable price. Old western scrounger has back ordered, and I just had to dump a bunch of too-old brass.
Let me know tomorrow next day if you are interested in selling some.

I don't know about the RWS 9.3x72R brass, but the norma sells for about $80.00 US per hundred new.

Not that European prices normally have much to do with US prices, but in this case prices seem pretty much in line. About 1$ per RWS 7x65R case. The 9.3x74 is listed at around $1.25 per case. Good brass.

The last time I bought any RWS 7X65R brass from the Ol' Western Scrounger, it cost me $26.00 U.S. per box of 20, plus shipping.... I've heard OWS has dropped RWS components .. Hope this is just a rumor!!

I ordered several calibers of RWS brass from OWS a couple months ago. At the time, Dave told me he was getting out of the RWS business. So I think it's more than a rumor.

BTW, Midsouth Shooters Supply now has S&B 7x65R and 7x57R loaded ammunition at prices less than new Norma empty cases. Does anyone have any experience with the quality of the S&B brass left over after firing?

I have used the S&B ammo in my 7x64, and it seems to be good quality.

S&B ammo is also sold at pretty modest prices (about what you US guys get regular Winchester or Remington ammo for) here in Europe. I have tried a few boxes, and it does not seem to have hurt anything, although I can't recall it being particularly accurate either. I think it is made in the Czech Republic??

Huntington lists Norma 9.3x72R for US $71.98 per C.
