I would pay $0.15-$0.20/casing if they are in good shape, before shipping costs.

It’s softer, no doubt, but anybody should be able to get a few cycles out of it. I think that I’m running a current batch at 4-5 cycles and it’s fine, but I don’t shoot max loads out of it. Chris |

It shouldn't make a difference but I've noticed that it can. |

Chris Are you using the loads from a semi-auto or a manual action? It shouldn't make a difference but I've noticed that it can. Good distinction. Mostly bolt guns. I do have an HK91 and did have, until recently an FN FAL, which I’ve no doubt shot FGMM brass out of it. Regardless, some have surmised that the reason FGMM has been so accurate out of the box, across a wide range of platforms, for decades, is precisely due to the brass being a tad softer. Chris |

I was going to make a snarky comment but your avatar is too awesome.
Just check in the reloading section of the EE (go to the bottom and check the “show closed” tab to see sold items). A search will also turn up sold items. You should be able to get an idea of the market from that. R.I.P. Jochen
