    I really hate to ask

    Makes me feel a little strange to have the need to ask. I am on a small SS and with the prices of gas and everything going up well! I am in need of some 284, 6.5 x 284 brass to form 450 Bushmaster out of. Maybe someone has some in there trash bin with split necks? You might be asking why bother, it is because I have around 1000 Large Rifle primers and maybe a couple of 100 sr primers. Thought maybe making a few pieces of brass to use with large rifle primers might hold me till primers come back and maybe prices go down. Thanks everyone for looking.

    I have 24 pieces of unprocessed once-fired Hornady 450 BM brass you can have if you want them. Don't know if this'll help you though. PM me your address if so.

    Still could use some 284, 6.5-284 or even 7.5x55 to form some 450 Bushmaster brass. Something not any good because split necks would work. Keeping my fingers cross.

    BR, I've got 17 pieces of 450BM in the mail to you. They're range pick ups but I'd bet they're once fired.

    Thanks can always use them. That is til my SR primers are gone. LOL
    If I can get a few pieces of the other brass to from to 450 bushmaster I will be able to use the LR primers that I have more of.
    I want to thank you for your kindness and for your help, that means a lot to this old man
    God Bless

    I have some 6.5-284 brass that has had the necks turned. If that will work I can send them to you.

    No shame in asking for help if ya need it. If I had what you need I’d help, but sadly I have nothing to contribute to your project. The world would be a lot better place if folks that needed help asked and folks that could help would.

    I was glad to help. If I had any SR primers, I'd send you some of those too.
