Show here in town. One fellow that has a bunch of tables usually has brass, powder and primers. Picked up some Rem sp primers for a friend along with a lonely 8lb keg of bullseye (only one he had). He usually has a bunch of primers, but not this weekend. Plenty of powder though.
Browsed the brass supply and lo and behold, he had a bag of 100 of NEW 6.5 Rem mag brass!!! Didn't think such a thing was still in existance. It followed me home, along with some 356Win brass and some 358 Win brass. I think I am set now for these calibers. No 218 bee brass, but did see two boxes of bee ammo go for $65 a box, and no 375 win brass, but talked to a fellow that has 12 boxes of the stuff!!! Gold mine there. But he has an 1894 Big bore in 375.
1894 Marlin Cowboy in 44mag didn't last long ($900)
Not too bad a show, but not all the tables were sold out. Too many old timers that had tables are passing away and not enough younger folks taking their place, I guess.
Will go back again tomorrow and see if I missed something;-)
