I have about 1000 sitting in a box around here.

Price is one thing, the killer would be shipping as I live in Central Ontario.

I buy my brass new from Sinclair because if you buy at least 500 it'll all be the same lot #.

Jason, go to any public range, especially during the month before deer season. You should be able to pick up at least 100 rounds of once-fired .30/30 brass every weekend. .30/30 brass makes good .32 Specials.

I second that last bit of advice. If you can put up with the range idiots and range nazis (dangerous to everyone and usually self-officious pri*ks) you can usually get a lot of free brass from the once a year shooters who blow a box and a half of $20 a box ammo trying to sight in their Wal-Mart Remingtons or their granddad's Lever 30-30s.

At the end of the day, if the range nazies are claiming the brass as part of the gunclub's range policy (some clubs state that any brass on the deck is property of the club. I don't stay with clubs like that but they are out there), I can usually score several bags and boxes worth of brass of various calibers. I reload for most already and the ones I don't become candidates for conversion to my more odd calibers.

Best score ever... 40 cases of Norma 7.7 Jap, 40 Small Primer Remington 7.62x39 and 30 Winchester 32 Special cases on the same day. I was literally grinning like the cheshire cat when I got home from the range that day.

from time to time.I like the ones that are 'buy it now' so I know the price up front.No bidding and wondering.:)
Or...buy fifty boxes of loaded ammo at wally mart,send it to me,and I'll return the brass postage paid. :)
once fired ta boot.!

For 30-30 brass, here's a good source. I didn't check shipping price. Regards, Woody
