recycling brass

[RedBaron1]

When I shoot I collect my brass and bring it home (45 & 9), and I habe approx a half of a 5gallon bucket full. In years past when bucket was full I would take and recycle for a few bucks. With the current environment of ammo tough to find and more people reloading, is it appropriate to offer for sale/trade?

Yep, you'll probably get more for it.. I paid about $80 for 1k rds of once-fired 45acp brass recently. It was polished, but that is not a big deal to me cause I deprime it and tumble it again anyway.. lol

Let me prove to you that it's worth more to "recycle" it through someone around here. Send me a PM.

You can definitely sell it here for more than scrap price. Or maybe trade it for some factory ammo or something else you can use. I love to barter.

Empty brass has ALWAYS been worth more than the scrap brass price.

Now you can obsess over all the money you lost over the years. If the scrap place was at all smart, they paid you scrap prices, and sold it as once fired cases.
