How to sell brass hulls? and to whom?

jody0124 · April 18, 2008, 03:17 AM

My father was an avid handloader and shooter. I am now cleaning out his shop and have thousands of brass hulls I'd like to sell. I'd like to know how to get the best price for them.

Also, can someone recommend a website I can use to determine the caliber of the hulls?

I'm open to advice.

Thank you ... Jody

The caliber of the shells will be stamped on the end, such as 30-30 win or 30-06 etc.
And I would assume you could probably sell them on any of the forums once you got them sorted out.
As to price, look here http://www.blue-star-inc.com/catalog/ofrbrass.htm And see what he is getting for brass, since yours are probably not cleaned nor de-primed, and I don't think his are either.

DO a little research and ask a fair price, they will sell fine right here.

You can also check out www.gunbroker.com and www.auctionarms.com for guys selling brass. I moved to Gunbroker after eBay outlawed brass sales there.
