The company I work for has a small range that is used by the city police, county police, sometimes the Reserves, and whoever else wants to use it. It's nothing special just a big sand berm about 40 yards away.
Anyway.....no one ever cleans up the brass. I went up there today and there is literally a wheel barrow full of pistol, rifle, and shotgun casings let alone everything on the ground. I spent 15 minutes picking up .223 and .40 and have half a Walmart bag full. Granted half of it is probably no good.
The only reason I quit was because I didn't know if it was worth it or not. I'm very new to reloading, is this considered a dangerous practice or is it ok? I figured even the brass I don't use I can clean up and sell or something.
