sorry, unsure of best place to put this, but i figured this was good as any.

i am looking for 20x fired 50 bmg brass. as in no other use for 50bmg folks. anyone with any input in the matter know what folks do with said brass? i assume actually scrapping, as they are huge!

how bout anyother weird, obscure, foreign, heavy MG brass? any thoughts on that?? thanks!!!

obviously i am looking for cheap, right? goes without saying sort of...

also, what kinda primers do they take, and how much they typically cost?

I don't know how many times folks fire their brass before retiring it, 20 times fired and then retired might be a reasonable standard, or not.

As for sources of brass, Jeff Bartlett has once fired US Boxer primed .50 BMG brass, mostly Lake City, for $0.80 each ($80.00/100, slightly less in larger quantities) plus shipping.
