Used justreloading.com for an order of 3k 9mm and 1k 45ACP. Pricing was affordable.
I have only processed 1K of the 9mm, I would say about 20% of it had crimped primers. They were quasi polished--certainly enough I wouldnt feel bad about loading them as I came but I just got a new wet tumbler sooo.. :) But all mixed headstamps, found a few 380 cases while going through them. No open-bolt fired brass or large bumps. Quick shipping so seems like a decent outfit. The 45 ACP was not sorted by primer and I likely pulled around 75 small primer out when I hand sorted as well as a few 40 cases. If you can take the time to process and sort/cull I think this is a good place to use--they seem pricing competitive. Not really any that were throwaways other than a few winchester with waaay off center flash holes and the 3 or so 380 cases. I will use them again unless I am in a time crunch and can't afford to sort. ETA: zero nickel cases that I can find. |

I prefer to buy fired brass that has not been polished to start with.
This way I can see the condition of the brass, to make sure it was not sitting in crap too long to tarnish/pit the hell out of it; and not just cleaned in some solvent that may caused the brass to be come brittle to gleam the outside of it up for resale instead. |
