a couple of weeks ago we went out to The Tillamook to look for mushrooms and stopped by the beaver Dam Pit. You ought to consider yourself lucky, because 99% of what we saw there was .22lr. Now if shotgun hulls were worth a nickel? Puckin' Fig shot gunners.
At the pit range I frequent, every time I go there now there's somebody just sitting in a car waiting for people to leave to go pick up brass. Sometimes pretty sketchy looking. It used to be an endless supply of reloading brass (*) but now you have to get lucky to find anything aside from .22s, shotshells, and steel cases. It annoys me that my brass supply has dried up.
(*) It used to be so good I'd turn my nose up at headstamps I didn't want.
