    Default Good Sources for Cost-Effective Cases

    I'm looking at getting into reloading with a couple of friends. Between us, I think we have a good handle on sources for equipment, bullets, powder, etc. The only thing we're struggling with is a good source cost-effective brass cases. Does anyone have some suggestions for sources for common calibers? What are good prices in people's experience?

    If it matters, specifically we're looking for .308, .223, .40 S&W and .38spl.

    I have bought from Brassman Brass several times with complete satisfaction...

    ETA: .40 should be littering your local range like snowflakes. I've gotten a lot of .38 from the brass bucket too. I'm leery of range pickup bottlenecks unless they are crimped primer and I can verify they are once fired. You don't want to grab the brass that some previous reloader left lie after his 10th overload on that case...

    Did you check out the top sticky thread? Your best bet is getting the once fired cases off of the classified section. Try this link with once fired 308 http://www.riverofguns.com/
