Carolina Brass

[X-Caveman]

I wanted to load some blasting/ hunting 300BLK & brass is in short supply. On Monday I put 85 PCs of once fired LC 5.56 and 50pcs of 5x fired Lapua 223 brass in a Small Flat Rate Box. I enclosed $21 cash and a note with my address. They emailed me a few days later saying that they had received the brass and would get right to work on it. It was in my mailbox yesterday (Saturday) - 5 days later! It cost me $29.40. The Bowmans only kept about $11, or $.08 per piece. The rest went to USPS. Incredible service, ridiculously cheap and the brass is beautiful! I’ve bought their converted 5.56 brass before and it was great, too. Highly recommend!

Thanks for posting this - I never heard of them, but they are only about 50 minutes away from me. I can drop it off!

Never used them before, any negative reviews on this brass ? would like to give a try.

I've used their 300BO. The cases are formed and trimmed to spec and uniform. Their pricing is hard to beat.

Not trying to take away from that company's business, but for those curious:

It's pretty easy to form your own 300BO from .223/5.56 brass. Whack the neck and shoulder of 223 off, run it through your 300BO die, trim to length, and chamfer rough edges.

You should pay attention to the neck thickness after forming though - case wall below the shoulder of the 223 case becomes the neck of 300 BO, and that thickness measurement can vary quite a bit. Thicker brass may need neck turning to ensure adequate chamber clearance.

Thank you for the recommendation.
