anyone hoarding brass?
 
i am a new manufacturer, and my local supply is DRY!! i need pistol brass, mainly 9mm/40/45! he has drums and drums, but doesn't have time to sort it out, nor do i lol. i am looking to pick up some brass for a decent price, i see some people charging like 75 bucks for 1k 45 brass, its crazy! my goal is to load 30-40k and then start my sales up again, selling by the thousand or two is killing me, i loaded 5k 9mm and it all sold in the weekend last week. now im dry. if you can help out let me know what we can do, thanks!

Yep, everyone is hoarding right now...you have too with Obama doing what he is doing. I have about 1K in my stockpile and it would take 4 times the value to get me to sell it. Just can't risk running out....not worth it....Good luck though!! I feel your pain buddy.

Me too. Got a couple thousand 45 and similar for several other calibers. But unless someone here needs some for personal reloading, they stay right here.

We're mostly pretty self-reliant here. I like that.

Like Phil, I feel your pain.

Uh, you are missing a ZERO at the end of that number :D

I haven't acquired much brass since Obama was elected (the first time), I've been working off brass acquired over the years, so I can't be blamed for the current shortage. :p

BTW I have over 1200 pieces of 223 brass

I've never owned a 223...
