For a while there, the plated ones (Berrys) were easier to get, and maybe still are - I've got enough to last a while and haven't looked.

Until recently, I didn't carry 9mm, but started about 4 months ago. Since I made up my mind to get a carry 9mm almost 6 months ago, I've been collecting brass at the range and compulsively reloading...

pig,

I had a Marlin lever action .357 as well. Sold them a LONG time ago, and nowadays, really wish I had kept them. This was before the days when I reloaded anything but shotgun ammo.

I so agree with you. I'm hoping that all the nonsense over the last year or so has woken Virginia up, but I'm not optimistic. There are too many liberals in NoVA, Richmond, and Charlottesville.
