why not sell it to people who reload?
I give them away. Usually after a 5 gal bucket is about full. As long as they give me the bucket back or give me a new one, all good.  :thumbsup:

I recycle the cmmon stuff mostly 9mm and 40SW and damaged brass.  Those don't sell or it's not worth the effort over recycling for scrap.  I give 5.56 to my friend ot reuse.  I kept my 38spl, 30carbine, 30-06 to possibly sell later.

I was thinking about keeping my 308 to sell/give to someone else. Definitely my 300 winmag though I don't fire it often.

I wonder how the nickel plated stuff goes.

From Bushido Arms:
Aloha Everyone,

Thank you all for your continued support of Bushido Arms & Ammunition. We've had a lot of success with our remanufactured ammunition and our reloading program. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances we are losing a major avenue for our brass supplies.

We have thought about this and have decided to institute a Cash for Cases program. We will pay $1.50 per pound of reloadable brass cases. A current list of what we are buying, and program details, will be posted soon. If you save your cases but don't reload, or if you just have too much, bring them by and we'll pay you for your unwanted brass.

Thank you all for your assistance. Shoot straight, shoot safe.

That sucks. But then you would have to sort it and you still would have had to gone to a recycling place because I am sure he wouldn't have taken .22 brass

Has anyone tried to recycle empty shotgun shells/hulls? Does Reynolds accept them? Thanks.

I went to Okuda Metals on Kahai Street last week with an ammo can full of
22lr brass. They gave me $1.90 per lb. I made $24.70 for that 1 can.

That's cool! :shaka:

I wonder how much the guys at KHSC makes.  Everyone sweeps up the brass and then dumps it into the bucket by the RO's PA Booth.
Sometimes you gotta know when to save your bullets.

Slick said he accumulates enough 22 brass to buy lunch. Not sure if he was serious, but to think he was at least partially serious.
