    Uses for 5.7mm brass

    I understand that people use 5.7mm brass for swaging 30 cal bullets?

    I don't swage bullets myself, but I've been going through and getting rid of a bunch of stuff lately and found some 5.7 brass. I've heard that not many people load it but swagers sometimes want it. I have absolutely no idea what it's worth, can't find much info. I really hate to post this kind of thread, and honestly I'm not fishing for a sale, but what's a fair price for this?

    I pay local brass scroungers 5 cents per case, and there is no shipping. Some of it that has been laying on the ground for a while is not worth a nickel each to me.
