Looks legit. Decent reviews on their site. Anyone buy a large pile of 223 brass from them?
 
I have buckets of 223 brass if your near Cheyenne if you need some, free. 98% 1x fired, deprimed, wet tumbled, seperated, just about every brand known. No LC as I keep that.

Hello, thanks!

I don’t know the details of what you have, what kind of shape, crimped, etc.

I’m either going range pick up, or just get new stuff. Looks like they’re at a little under a quarter for new. I’m going to call and find out what they are selling, headstamp, maker.

Pm me a shipped price and any details. Thanks

You didn't mention whether you were talking about new or once fired brass so here goes. There new brass is likely foreign origin. As such it may well be good but not likely match quality. It may well be good but likely not brass we are typically familiar with. Some of it may be Latvian.

Once fired mixed headstamp is just that. Sorted once fired is like one manufacture and often military (lake City) and often in limited years as the brass is range pickup from military bases. Problem is some is machine-gun brass and has crimped primers. In 223/556 the brass can be a PITA to prep.

So it depends on whaat you intend to do. I personally have shot 308 brass from them (one fired LC) and it is great but it required a lot of work to get it prepped. Remove primer crimp. Resize MG brass is a massive undertaking and stuck cases are a real issue. 223/556 will be less of an issue.

So if I were loading for plinking for an are I would just get new brass. If I wanted LC and was willing to put in the time to perp it (Ream/swage primer pocket, resize, trim, chamfer and deburr, then I I would get sorted. Mixed brass may well have crimped brass so I would avoid it.

That’s good advice. I’m leaning towards their new, or someone’s new brass. Seems like less drama unless you knew crimps were the only fight you had coming. New is just under a quarter there. I have read it’s Eastern Europe stuff, people seem to like it. If you know a better source holler! Thanks

Have you shot any of these bullets? They ain’t showing 223 brass.

Nice price on the 69/75 gr 22 cals.

I couldn't get their 69 to shoot that well but the 75 is decent. They aren't a Sierra for sure.

When the 69 was on sale for 120/k, I bought some and load them in my AR for shooting bigger steel targets. More energy and better accuracy than a 55 FMJ.
 
Or.. Blue Collar , Powder Valley and Midway have new brass for decent pricing. Midway has good pricing right now on their Dogtown brass (supposedly Nosler) and Starline. I use a lot of Lake City myself, but as stated above, it takes some prep work.
