Are these Range brass sellers anygood?

Hammer101st

I need some brass for a rifle but cant find good brass but found a couple of these range brass sellers are they to be trusted any you guys have any experience with them good or bad or whatever. Whats a good price to pay?
 
I've used a couple in my area , but I guess it would depend on the type and caliber you're looking for . I was getting 7.62 x 54r , which has limited manufacturers here in the states , and Mosin shooters know which "Brand" is better than others , so it worked out for me . Buy X number of cases , and sort them . Some days you get a majority of good stuff , and some days you get a lot of 3 or 4 reload practice brass . But some brass is better than NO brass .

I here that
 
I have Hammer101st. A few times actually and they are very reputable. They have 100 pieces for $28 in stock. All matching headstamp also. I’ve not bought 30’06 from them but what I have bought has been exactly as advertised.
 
Just bought a 1 thousand LC 19 primed brass $300. They required some work...almost better not to have em primed...cleaned the insides of necks of sealent that gets stuck on the case body, clean the OD case body, size without the decapping pin, champher, deburr case mouth...and manderal size the neck.....done, now you have 1000 primed cases ready to load. Compared with the same load in Lapua cases VS the LC randomly chosen factory primed cases were .1" larger than Lapua 5 shot groups on the small sample fired from the same rifle... great for cheap plinking ammo...and the AR10 shot 2, 5 shot groups under a half inch .3" and .4" with this primed LC brass...a good value? I believe so, and you're not to concerned about losing a few pieces of brass. Arm or Ally is where I purchased my LC brass.

Yeah, for some 45-70 brass. The thing I was most concerned about recieving was Hornady brass since that stuff is short to fit the FTX bullets.
No Hornady thankfully, brass was clean, mostly Remington and Federal with some Starline mixed in.

If this is for m1 garand or springfield fodder, but some surplus ammo from CMP, shoot it, and reload it. Cheaper than buying brass and reloading.
If your doing some high dollar hunting / target ammo , then buy new brass
 
The brass man in grants pass, or, is legit and been in biz for 30 yrs. I know him and been to his place.
 
Recently bought some 9mm from an indoor range for $9 / k.

Totally unprocessed , Reasonably dirty for 9mm semi ammo, they claimed once fired, good condition, deprimed fairly easily, no crimps I could see. At that price, I could sell it for scrap and get mosta my $$$ back.

Seemed to be a mix of brassy primers (Winchester) and shiny "chrome" primers (CCI) so may not be once fired. A few silver case, even one 22 rf case in there.

I'd be more inclined to trust straightwall pistole cases than bottleneck rifle from re-sellers, but maybe that's just me.

That's why I like Diamond K . They have certified once fired Remmington Peters and Federal for 9mm and 45acp Plus when in stock LC 223
