Can anyone recommend a good company that they've used that does Bulk Brass Processing? I've accumulated a lot and would like to have it processed for a reasonable price. Going rate seems to be $35 to $50/1000 for depriming, sizing, trimming and tumbling.

Any experience regarding a company you've used would be helpful.

Check the EE, and note the feedback there for those who offer that service.

Brass prep is half the fun!

I won't say brass processing is half the fun, but it's half of what it takes to get accurate rounds.

Too important (to me) to let someone else do it.  

If you're just using the brass for plinking rounds, I don't guess it matters.

Buy the equipment and do it yourself. It'll pay for itself in no time. Plus, processing the brass is part of the fun for me.

i hate processing brass so im constantly looking for ways to speed it up that wont break the bank. if you have a Dillon press, you can get your press set up with that aftermarket press mounted swager for around $80 bucks. then buy the Dillon power trimmer and size, swage and trim in one setting.

for us with a Hornady press, were SOL with the above mentioned set up. for me, i size on a single stage, then trim with a CTS trimmer powered by my drill press, and then use a VLD on my drill press. swage with a dillon bench swager and you're golden.

there is a Powered units CTS makes you can get off ebay that has a few cases prep stations going on at the same time that looks amazing.

I've had several people do it. It's not worth the time for me with my current work schedule. There are two on the ee currently that do good work. I used to use Danny Henry and hope he'll come back. I haven't had any issues. Cost with shipping both ways on full flat rates runs about 5 CPR.
