$10 a case, WOW! Not judging, just an observation and simple math.
 
I just bought a box of 20 Hornady brass from a store in British Columbia. $80 Canadian shipped. I have two boxes of RWS brass that came with my reloading dies package. I don't care for it. Rim thickness varies and all cases were short in length. Hornady cases are correct length with thinner and more uniform rim thickness. Short case length plays hobb with crimping (necessary for serious recoil calibers) and inconsistent rim thickness can make for inconsistent snap over and ejection.

Sorry, the store only had one box of brass. They do have 400 gr bullets at a good price but I was looking for 350 gr.
 
I see Nosler has 375 H&H brass, packets of 25 regularly $130.95 reduced to $54.95. So all you have to do is spend about 30 minutes per case and have enough equipment to swage out the belt and body to .5" then neck down and set the shoulder- with proper equipment you could do it in a long day or possibly 2. And when you were done you'd still have cases with incorrect markings- but hey, you'd have saved a few bucks- maybe.

That price for those .375 cases from Nosler are for "blems" and are part of their blem sale. Nothing wrong with buying blem cases or bullet, but not at those prices for me.

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

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
