    Interesting. How much does 1k of 9mm brass weigh. I have two 5 gal. Buckets of it.

    I have a mostly full 5 gal bucket, and it is 68 pounds.

    2 Lbs of Brass Equals “about” (for brass not listed below use the caliber close to the same size and adjust quantity accordingly)

    300 Ultra Mag 50-75

    300 Mag 60-75

    30-06 70-100

    7mm Rem Mag 60- 80

    7wsm 60-75

    .308 80-120 pieces

    .223 150-180 pieces

    .45 160-180 pieces

    .40 210-220 pieces

    9mm-230 pieces

    50 BMG 25-40 pieces

    .243 90-125
