    Anyone interested in usps large flat rate boxes of 9mm at $180 each? They hold right at 5800 cases, making the cost after shipping $31.03/1000.

    Dirty brass from an indoor range, steel and aluminum will be removed.

    After all the requests I got for 9mm brass, I'm amazed nobody is jumping on this.

    Where are you getting it cheaper?

    It's been a while since I bought brass but the norm for dirty range pick up brass was $15-$20/1000

    $25+ would be more appropriate for polished, once fired brass.

    I bought a shitload of dirty brass for $15/1000 a while back and haven't needed to re-up in years.

    I think things have changed then. Scrap price for 10 pounds of cases is right at $14. Everyone on cast boolits is over $30/1000 plus shipping. If you can find 9mm brass for under $20 per 1000 I'll buy a 55 gallon drum full.

    You wouldn't want to take advantage of Freedom Munitions' brass credit program?

    No, it is much cheaper to load your own. $2.50 a pound, plus paying for shipping to buy ammo at $220 a case isn't a good deal when you can reload it for about $100 a case less.

    How many 9mm cases in 10lbs?

    $2.50/pound? Is that the price they're paying for brass currently?

    Yes, which is part of why you won't find 9mm brass for under $30 per 1000 shipped anymore unless you're buying by the ton or get lucky. Why spend hours sorting(or invest in a sorting machine) to sell for a fraction over what someone will credit you for brass you didn't need to sort.

    30/1000 for dirty brass of unknown round count?

    Range pickup brass is going for approx $150 per whatever poundage is a full 5 gal bucket. Thats like within the past 6 months.

    Find me any that is going for that price, I'll buy 10. All range brass is unknown round count, once fired is an assumption unless it is crimped brass that is still crimped, or being sold by the shooter. I was planning on buying 5 of these boxes. If I can get 5 gallon buckets for cheaper I'll jump all over it.

    Joel, I just sent a couple of text messages, and got a couple of other people on board. If you can find 5 gallon buckets full at $150 I'll take 10 and give you $300 cash as a finders fee
