WTB .223 brass - non-military

Anyone looking to sell some commercial 223 brass? I say commercial because I want to ensure it's non-military and doesn't have crimped primer pockets. Even if they've been de-crimped. I've tried working with de-crimped pockets before and just ended up quitting in frustration. Some would work, others wouldn't no matter what I tried.

Once- or twice-fired would be OK, but ideally nothing that's on its last legs. Mixed headstamps OK as long as nothing is crimped.

To be used for plinking, not serious precision shooting.

Thanks guys.

Just go to ANY rifle range----you will be able to scrounge all the .223 brass that you want! There is probably no caliber in the USA that is fired more than the .223 and A LOT of shooters don't reload.
I know at the range that I frequent I can grab all that I want and a lot of times it is Lapua and Norma brass.

I know you are fed up with swaging the primer pockets but I will say that I have the Dillon primer pocket swaging tool + it works like a dream. Just a thought.

I've tried the range pickup thing - that's what led me to the frustrating process of trying to swage primer pockets Smiler

Norman, thanks for the suggestion but I just can't seem to get the swaging thing to work. I got so frustrated I promised myself I'd never mess with crimped primers again. Maybe I just wasn't doing it right...

How do you feel about nickel plating?
