Pay it Forward in Reloading

It’s pretty awesome. I have pushed those 180’s to 2600 fps with no pressure signs from a 16” barrel. My normal hunting load is about 2500. It really takes the AR15 to the next level. The power of a 450 bushmaster or 458 socom, but much flatter shooting. The case capacity is a couple grains less than 35 Remington, but loaded to 55,000 psi. I have a 35 rem handi rifle and a magnum research lone eagle pistol which can both handle 30/06 pressures, so I load for both of them with 358 yeti load data in a 35 rem case. My 3rd 35 rem is a Remington 141 which just gets standard pressure cast bullet loads

2550 is the speed I'm running my Whelen loads at. The hotcore does an excellent job at this velocity.
 
I had a 7mm Browning X-Bolt that would stack bullet on top of each other. traded a Winchester 94 1976 year, perfect condition plus $100 for it. Now I miss both guns, after that, I refuse to do anymore trading. I’m bad at values!
 
Everything shipped today.




GONE (Going to NMachine): Found a couple of old Speer boxes of Hot Cor 35 cal .358" dia, 180 gr flat nose. 87 each in one box, 97 each in the other.

GONE (Going to Jester31780): Also found 200+ pieces of older Lake City 5.56 brass, range pick-ups, sized to .223, trimmed and pockets cleaned, I've had these going back to around 2010 or so, never put them to use. let me know if you need bullets too; I think I have about 175 pcs of 55gr Midway FMJ I can toss in.

GONE: 55 pcs of 32 Long, mixed headstamps, but mostly FC and once-fired CBC. I can toss in some Acme lipstick RN. (Going to Hooda Thunkit)

All 243 and 6.5 Crdmr GONE.

Edited to add: First to PM for an item gets it. I am not going to send everything to one person, so just ask for one line item at a time.

I have 70 to 80 pieces of mixed headstamp .45 Auto range brass that is free to anyone who can use it. It's no treasure trove, believe me. A friend picked it out of the dirt at a local state forest. I culled out the ones with crushed mouths, decapped the rest and ran them in the old Lyman Turbo 600 for a couple hours. There may be a couple that won't go into a sizing die, but I think most are salvageable. Send me an address if interested and I'll send them your way.

Anything you need or want?

I'd be willing to make a trade if I have what you desire.
 
i will pass and let someone who needs them more than I get them.
Well, the brass has been available for nigh on a week now and nobody else has raised a hand so I guess you need them just as much as anyone else. If you really can't stand the thought of accepting something for free, you can pay the postage. They're just sitting on my bench taking up space since I don't load for that caliber. You'd be doing me a favor by taking them off my hands.
