Who wears out their reloaded pistol brass?
Agreed Farbmeister..

Not me.....I have a batch of about 300 .45's that are on at least the 15th or so reloading by now....I lose 1 or 2 every session and cull out maybe another 5 or so. I still have a reserve of a 3 gallon jug of once fired.

Pistol brass lasts a long time.

Rifle brass is what I usually need! Even if it is in small batches I buy it (flea markets and what have you).

Good website and decent setup, I put it in my favorites, hope you guys start selling rifle brass.

I hope its not your day job, because you are selling a product with a VERY long lifetime and that is available free (as in beer) at any range. I snagged 75 once fired (I watched him shoot them) Winchester .45ACPs for the cost of simply bending down and picking them up.

Also never go for the lowest price. People will pay for a service you provide. Is 'every order ships within 48 hours' REALLY a selling point? As mentioned there are other places that will *ALWAYS* be cheaper. Don't be so eager to race to the bottom of the price list.

Nice site, a little dude-centric, but in all honesty I don't think you'll do far or make much.

Good luck.. I hope you do well.
Ouch. Rough. There are plenty of other places on the web that sell once-fired brass that seem to be making a pretty good living (judged by waiting times). I think you're too quick to sell him short. Also, price is huge in the once-fired brass game. Selling cheap means selling a lot.

I definitely agree on rifle brass. I am always on the lookout for .223 or 30-06. I find it pointless to buy new brass, but once-fired brass is a steal generally... because you can fire it so many times. Although I have plenty of brass in all the pistol calibers I shoot, I still buy brass on occasion if the price is right so I can stock up. I enjoy making ammo. Also, it's always nice to have a big stockpile just in case the powers to be decide to start over-taxing ammo or components.
