Been to the local scrap dealer today and he gave me £2 a kilo for a load of milsurp 7.62 and 5.56

Very lucrative, as they have just started taking old brass again, last time I got 50p kilo

I'll let the Chief know, he's desperate to raise cash.

I'll collect them.

I did the same a couple of years ago but only got £1.75/kg.
Still I walked away with about £150 IIRC

Well I make it @154x once fired 5.56mm RUAG to the kg

and @86x once fired 7.62mm MEN to the kg

I was surprised, didn't seem many of either.

If you reload I presume they gradually get lighter.

Yes, I'm that bored..........

You were all ripped off,



I just got £2.60 per kilo

Only downside is that I've now gotta take the wifey out to dinner tonight
