question on used Military brass

[rjmt]

so, I have hundreds and hundreds of spent cases of 5.56 and 7.62 brass fired only once by the USMC back in '91
my god son gave it to me back then for reloading
BUT - it was fired out of automatic weapons and is very oversized
also has crimped primers which will have to be knocked out with a punch
my wife won't let me reload here, so it's just taking up room in my garage
in ziplocks and ammo cans, sill has dirt in the cases from the range at Camp Pendleton

is anyone interested? not for sale - I'll just give it to someone - you'll have to come up to Woodland to get it, I can meet someone in town if you want it
otherwise I put it recycling

send PM if interested

Change the title to Free Brass and these will be gone in a nice orderly manner!

Or post them up in the pay it forward thread.

Used military brass isn't always useless, until you get to the level of General. At that point, the reject rate skyrockets, with a few "keepers" and an occasional "treasure."

one of the forum members is coming down to get it
I reloaded and shot 100 cases of LC through my Garand back in '92
got 8 reload for the Garand before the cases stretched out
but I had to hand punch the primers, ream the primer holes and hand resize the cases in a single stage press
