Brass - .30-06 (280 pcs), 303 British (135 pcs), 30-30 (80 pcs), 270+243 Win (40 pcs)
I've got 678 pieces of brass I'd like to get rid of (all once-fired):

+ .30-06 - ~12 boxes (238 pieces) plus a bag of 138 in bulk
+ 303 British - 7 boxes (140 pieces)
+ 30-30 - 4 boxes (80 piece) - SOLD
+ 270 Win - 1 box (20 pieces)
+ 243 Win - 20 pieces (no box)

Some photos here for the truly interested: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo...8do4uahvefbqmld&dl=0

I don't sell brass very often (if ever), but the lowest price I can find for mixed once-fired brass is 35 cents per piece. And many, many sites are much higher than that. I am asking $175 for the lot, which is 26 cents per piece. Buyer pays actual shipping. PayPal, Venmo, money order or personal check. I will ship when the payment clears. Thank you very much for looking!

Minor correction: I went through all of the boxes this morning, and 2 of the .30-06 boxes were empty. So the full count for .30-06 is about 12 boxes (238 cases) plus 138 in bulk = 376 total. I have updated the original post.

Also, the 30-30 brass has all been sold. Thx!

How much to you want for the 303 British cases?

For just the 303, I think 50 cents per case plus shipping is a good price. The lowest I see for once-fired in bulk is 83 cents per case plus shipping (East Coast Reloading).

I just took an exact count, and there are 135 pieces of 303. That comes out to $67.50

I would take all the 30-06 if described in a little more detail as to what you have and a price per round. mixed or all same brand, once fired or new etc.

Hi Ray:

Sounds good! I will take it all out and get some close-up photos for you, as well as details on the head stamps.

I took some hi-res photos of the head stamps on the boxed-cases. For the bulk ammo, I pulled out a large random selection of cases and did the same. Here is a Dropbox link:

P.S. Note - There are also photos of a single box of 270 Win, and some loose 243 cases. Ignore them. Thx

P.P.S - All of the brass is "once fired", Ray. None of it is brand new. Just wanted to clarify. As far as price-per-piece, I was thinking about 35 cents. Does that sound fair? Please let me know :-)

FYI - The 303 brass has been bought and paid for.

I still have all of the .30-06 (376 pieces total), plus 20 pieces each of the 270 Win and 243 Win.

On request, I just sorted the mixed bag of .30-06 into separate head stamps. The contents consist of four difference head stamps:

Winchester (silver color, brass-nickel) = 24 pieces
IMI (brass color) = 18 pieces
FC (brass color) = 16 pieces
R-P (brass color) = 80 pieces
