    50-90 Sharps Cases . old, split

    Greetings
    If anyone has any old split unwanted Sharps 50-90 (2 1/2") cases send me a PM. I need to get ready to make some 50-95 cases which are about 1.96 inches long. So I am willing to use the long but messed up Sharps cases as long as they have enough good case left to form 50-95 brass. Would ship to ILLinois 61834.
    Or if you have any 50-95 to sell send a PM.

    Mike check the rim specks they might be somewhat different. I don't know why I think that but it wont hurt to check. For some reason I think the 50/95 might have a thinner rim so the 50/90 may not chamber.

    Greetings
    Have read that the rim is a shade thicker and does need some removed. I could easily handle that. Just thought I would try to come up with a bit more economical way to have a few more pieces of 50-95 on hand.
    The prices of formed brass make me shudder and to buy 250 new 50-90 Starline was an eye opener.

    You can buy cases one at a time at Track of the Wolf and Buffalo Arms.

    Widener's actually has them in stock in quantities of 50 for $70
