As stated above, Yugo surplus M67. It is corrosive, however. RAS used to come in a variety of favors, including copper-jacketed/brass-cased, but I haven't seen as much of that recently.

There's also the Geco brand brass cased that is I believe boxer primed.  More expensive of course and you'll need to search a bit for some available/in stock.  Sportsmans Guide used to have some but they look out of stock for now.

I have some Geco that I picked up from Targetsportsusa a while back.  They haven't had it in stock in a few months but if I recall it was about 40cents/rd.

I used to see brass Winchester white box sometimes.  It was expensive, 90 Cents a round I think.  I don't see it available online anywhere.

Best, and cheapest bet is Red Star, hit or miss finding it but usually about .50 / round YMMV.

I've found both PMC and Winchester white box.  75 cents each for the PMC and 1.25 for the white box.
I'll be shooting mostly steel cased but want to do some loading so want some brass.
thanks, All.

Federal 7.62x39mm 124 gr FMJ American Eagle is also brass cased but kind of pricey.

Starline just put out that they are making x39 brass now.  
I have seen Winchester x39 brass bagged and hanging in the sportsmans whore house.
And, if you are the patient sort, have berdan primers and bullets, the Yugo brass seems to be great.  
Cabelas sells the Herters brand x39 and it is produced by Sellier&Bellot also.

That Winchester white box is underpowered compared to most commie ammo and isn't worth the price. I'd stick with the other brass already mentioned, M67, Fiocchi etc.

No huge quantities, but, commercial loader in Knoxville, TN has some. Parabellum Ammo (Ryan Patrick). He is good to go and so is his work.

I like geco 7.62x39, rural King in my area has it for $7.49 for a box of 20 rounds. I bought 1000 rounds for $375 plus tax but they had a 12% in store rebate going on so after the rebate it was $360.

Don;t forget Lapua.

They sell it as reloading components as well.

Since some people didn't read, you'll wanna skip the M67 as it's Berdan primed.

And it is Corrosive too...  Yugo M67 is good shooting and effective 7.62x39 ball ammo, but it is corrosive primed.

I purchased the proper Berdan primers, a rcbs berdan tool and reloaded a couple hundred afew nights ago.
So it's possible to use the case.
The head size is larger than American spec for the x39 however.  
So I used a 06 head size shell holder which is a bit sloppy.

Just DO NOT try to load those Albainian x54r cases as that brass is complete junk.

I wish Wolf Gold was available in 7.62x39.

Assuming the OP is just looking for inexpensive brass cased ammo and not reloading brass, my preference is PPU or Herters when I can get it for 50 cents/round. Geco is good stuff as well although their 7.62x39 is Hungarian, not as good as their Swiss or German ammo.

I always recommend Yugo M67 if you’re comfortable cleaning up after corrosive ammo. I’ve run it thru multiple ARs & AKs with zero rust. Last I saw it was around 35 cents/round.

Red Army is OK but for me the PPU shoots better.

You might run across some Cheetah once in awhile.  I've found it pretty good ammo but shooting less of it these days to conserve supply.

AIM has GECO 7.62x39 at 40c/rnd for Memorial Day, still listed. Says INTRODUCTORY OFFER!

https://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=ARU76239FMJ124&name=Geco+7.62X39+Target+124grn+FMJ+20rd+box&groupid=39

I bought 1K when they were available couple years ago, some guns like it, some don't, better than steel case for sure and I paid 36c/rnd, ammo not brass, shipped from SPG.
