218 Bee Brass

Has anyone seen 28 Bee brass available on any of the online retailers? I've been looking for months to no avail.
 
I haven't seen any for years. Hornady has recently run 17 Hornet and 22 Hornet, so maybe the Bee is next.
 
It's not cheap, and not sure if it helps you, but Natchez shooting supply has loaded Hornady ammo, I just bought some.
 
Seems to be available at the moment from a few place...woo-wee..I believe they are stamped from gold sheeting not brass going off the price..hahaha..oh fellas the days of plentiful inexpensive reloading components are gone.

Link removed (scam site)

This is a scam site. Any site that takes PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, cash app etc. is a scam site. Just an fyi
 
I didn't even look at that.im sorry fellas .Natchezss actually had some instock when I posted that link..now its out of stock, it was hornady
Did one of you lucky souls score what you needed..you realy need to on the ball now a days it's insane..people work harder trying to steal from other then they would if they just got a good job...
Oh well..
 
I have three rifles that use 218 bee brass and have always thought Starline could do us all a favor if they made 218 bee brass. After all I always thought the reason Starline got started was to keep older obsolete guns still shooting. Take a look at all the 45-70 Marlin lever guns at the range these days. I realize all the M4s at the ranges these days demand a lot of 556 brass but dang it if they built 218 bee brass it would All get sold.

if only us .218 shooters to keep harassing Starline maybe they would finally decide to offer it. Ive been asking them for 5 years
 
If it helps and it probably doesn't, there's some on G.B. I'm not posting any links..a few options if your in a pinch.
Its in once fired form.
As for starline making 218 brass

I pulled this from another forum response

Emailed them about making 218 bee brass. They replied that they are not doing custom jobs right now and would not even consider the 218 BEE as they said the 32-20 was tough enough to make and the 218 BEE brass would be even worse. Thought you guys might want to know.
 
Another option is 7.62 Nagant (PPU) as I've made 32-20 from it. A little labor intensive but not hard. Trim to length, size, turn necks to .0075.
Works great for rimmed 30 carbine (30 Blackhawk)
