I found a little over 200 pieces of 404 Jeff brass for sale at a local gun store. It is marked "HDS" and I have never heard of this brand. Is the brass any good and what is its value?

Huntington Die Specialties.

Not sure who they had make it for them. Given the scarcity - in high demand!
 
Asking $60 for the box of 20. I count over 10 boxes.

I don't shoot a 404 J. If someone needs it, let me know and perhaps I can secure it for you.
 
As much as I'd like to buy them just to hoard for any future rifles that may come up, I'm sure there are some current owners who will jump on them
 
Thanks fellers for the input.
Randy.
 
PM sent. I’d like some if you’re able to get them. Thanks
 
I bought the lot and it's available to AH members. $60 per box of 20 plus shipping. At the moment, I believe I have 7 boxes left.

At this moment. I have all boxes sold pending payment. I will post here if someone backs out.

@baxterb thanks man
I've been watching folks beg for this stuff and had seen it on the shelf of this little gun store. I don't have a 404J and was afraid of getting stuck if I bought it. Well it went in 3 hours. Glad I was able to help 3 of our AH family.

Very good thing to do. Thank you even though I missed it.

Wish I had a little more to spread around.

Not a problem. I have quit a few. I am also in the process of 404j's getting built. At that time I may need some brass to go with them.. Hoping brass will be back in the market by then.

Primers!...... that's what scares me the most. I've been reloading the last few days and breaking into a new sleeve of primers made me gasp for air.
 
Allegedly Hornady will be making 404J again this summer. That’s what Steve told me at DSC and later confirmed by Chris at Heym. Will see what comes of it.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx
