Bad 223 Brass... Could be GREAT 300 whisper brass
 
So... I have 37lbs / 2600rnds of lake city, annealed, once-fired, military crimped primer, unprocessed, that for some reason or another is not good for 223 anymore. Some of it may be fine, I don't really know enough about reloading to call it. If it wasn't 100% round it got tossed in this bin.

The most common problem is the mouth is a little bent or out of round. I was about to recycle it when I realized it could make good 300 whisper brass.

So... if anyone wants it I'll sell it cheap, like $85 shipped (~$0.03 per) if someone wants all of it. Otherwise it's worth $45 if I recycle it and that doesn't cost me shipping. I'd rather see it go to use.

Here is a photo, I had a handful of blanks I dumped on top. Ignore those.

I'd be willing to do 1000 at time or so if someone wants.

Second photo is of good brass, but I wanted to show the headstamp. I have 3000 of that also avail, but I'd rather see the bad stuff turned into good whisper first.

Sold!

I won't be back home until monday Aug 24, but if you can wait that long I will mail off a money order that day. I'll even take the blanks if you don't want them!

Sharky,

Consider them yours. I'll start about boxing them up tonight.

Thanks buddy, just PM me with a shipping addy for the check and I will get that fired off sometime tomorrow afternoon.

Can you make Whisper cases from .223 blanks?

dang thats a good deal!

I can't get ahold of sharky, so if anyone wants it, still for sale.

As far as the blanks, I think you can since a lot of the case is cut. There are only total 20 blanks in the entire bin. It's a misleading photo since they were all on top.

If you want to split the lot up in half (1300 rounds) for $40 shipped I'd be very interested. Let me know.
