I'm 95% certain I'll be selling my Mark X 458 Win mag -- a couple months ago, I bought ~300 pieces of brass for it. How do I tell which ones are good or not, aside from checking for splits? To my uneducated eye, the brass looks more used than it was described, and I don't want to sell anyone bad stuff.

I was hoping someone else would pick up this ball, but since they haven't, and I don't mean to be a smartass, but why bother selling it at all? Seems to me the better approach would be to just throw it away, or give it away. Assuming you can find it from Win. next run, 300 new cases are worth less than $200 and once-fired will less than $100. How much can questionable number of reloads cases be worth? ------------------------------- Will / Once you've been amongst them, there is no such thing as too much gun. --------------------------------------- and, God Bless John Wayne.

I certainly wouldn't throw away a $100 bill! And you didn't specify brand so it could easily be triple or quadruple that amount. There are a LOT of measurements for brass. IMO The best way to sell this would be to fairly state the condition and take a good Macro pic of the worst of the lot. Then Caveat Emptor. | |||

First up, even new .458WM brass can look a bit crappy, with the neck annealing marks left on, and used brass can look off while still being good. I would sell anything that you were prepared to use yourself. The new owner can sort them how he likes, dodgie ones for plinker loads ect. No neck splits, no head seperation marks, firm primers, what's not to like? | |||
