I was just reading the comments on a recent post, "Who makes a better cartridge case" at http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=634326 and wondered how many of us buy new brass and for what cartridges.
With so much 9mm and .45 ACP lying around the ranges, I do not seem ever to have to buy new brass for these cartridges. For revolver rounds like .44 magnum / special I find I buy new brass exclusively and of course reload them. Rifle cartridges seem to be the same. I have not found too much .45-70 lying around.
So who buys new brass and for what cartridges and why? Thanks, and as always, its a really pleasure to read all of your thoughtful comments.
