Check out the annual cartridge collector's show in Castle Rock, WA if you haven't already done so. I even drove down there one year from north of Seattle. It was great, lots of common and weird stuff to see. And I got some great deals on contemporary ammo that I don't ever expect to get again. This year, March 18-19.

Thanks for the heads up. I just found the one case a few weeks ago, I'll bet the guy just couldn't find that last case.
About like me when I'm searching for that last 300 BO case.

Thanks, I'll definitely make that trip.
I wonder if anyone there sells singles?

Oh I think you'll find just about anything there. Lots of cartridge collectors only want one of each, very common.

A couple of the vendors the time I went there had all sorts of different experimental 5.56mm rounds, fascinating.

I might consider going again this year. I think it was cancelled during the height of the Covid thing. I can tie that in with a trip to Smash Burger; the one in Ridgefield is the only one in Wash. state. There are some other stops I can make along the I-5 corridor as well.

We will have to meet up for a coffee or a beer and I will give you one or a few of the cartridges.

Well Caveman been busy with 2 grandkids for almost a week.

I finally got a list made up of "what I Have", "Bullets I Need".
I'm trying to figure out what else I need since I don't have one of those posters with all calibers, not sure I want to go that route..

"What I have w/brass/bullet:
Rifle:
.17 HMR, 218 Bee, 22lr, 22Mag, 6.5 Gren, 221 Rem, 22-250, 30 Carbine, 32WCF, 357REM Mag, 76.2x39, 204 Ruger, 300BO, .223/5.56, 250HP, 300 Savage, 32-40, 6.5 CM, 220 Swift, 6.5 Carcano, 32 W.S., .308, VIII German ?, WCC 41 ?, UMC 7 Mill, 7.5x54, 5.5x55, 30-06, 8mm Mauser, 300 H&H Mag
Pistol:
6.35 Br, .380, 9mm, 40 S&W, 38SPL, 38 SPL+P, 357 Mag,

Bullets needed for brass that I have:
Rifle:

I can cover the 45 Colt, 44 Mag, 44 Special, 41 Special and 38 Super bullets. Would you be wanting any other cartridges like 32 H&R, 32-20, 38-40, 44-40, 10mm, and 480 Ruger? I can add at least .300 Win Mag to the rifle and will look to see what others have like maybe 375 H&H and 7mm Weatherby Mag.

That sounds like the makings of a good road trip. I will put that on my calendar post haste.

I enjoy nothing better Andy but I am just too far away to meet up. A 3 hour one way trip nowadays really puts a damper on my aching arse.

Sure thing Big Time!!! I do good with obsolete, Hell land lines are nearly obsolete, I can't even give away my old splicing tools, Yep, they obsolete too…

By the way, save a spot for the 401 SL as well. I load for that too my step dad has one and I have a dummy right here. I can actually make 401's as well out of 762 by 39 brass.

like I was telling another member today, this was going to be a simple take my time relax and get her done project. Now it is turning into an international edition and now I'm going to have to call in an order for a forest full of lumber to build it.

Wish I could help with the .458 SoCom, but all I shoot now is cast.

Not a problem my friend, I found one today from a local guy on another board, thanks Jeff.
