I saw 18 pieces of once-fired 450 brass for sale for over $4 a piece.
I guess we kind of knew this but I emailed Hornady about brass for these two calibers Hornady helped develop and market. Here is their response:

Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, we have discontinued the 450 Marlin and 480 Ruger Unprimed Brass as a component. Please understand that we only started making our own brass about 7-8 years ago. Before that we would rely on Vendors. Then during times like this of high demand, we could not always get what we needed to load our ammo. When we purchased the brass machines our intent was to supply our own ammo. Then came a few years where we had extra brass, so we packaged it. Now due to the demand of the ammo, we are using everything we make in our own ammo. So these 2 cartridges for brass we are no longer able to offer as a component.
Thank you again.

Fortunately for me, I have enough brass in both that my grandkids will be set. I will say there won't be any "PRC" or other new Hornady developments in my gun safes. Sad. My reloading bench and shelves are covered with "red". There's probably going to be a lot more "green" and "black/gold" in the future.
