    I bought a 250 count bag of .45ACP brass to top up an order for free shipping: looks good!

    I got 259 brass; one was split, two dented but salvageable, and four Federals will be culled due to pressure signs (primers are flat, firing pin went through and the primer pockets are not round). Plus, two are marked "CBC" brass and those... might get culled for spite! Good thing for the nine spare.

    Counts for those interested (obviously will change on every bag):
    80 S&B
    67 Federal
    1 Top Brass
    2 CBC (aka Magtek... likely crimped primer)
    49 RP
    1 A USA
    12 PMC
    17 IWMΛ
    2 Λ95
    3 Λ93
    8 Blaser (brass, not tin or nickel)
    17 Winchester

    Thank you go the good brass!

    One of the most common questions I get via email.
    Freight costs?
    For most of Canada we will ship your ($300 +) order for free. If your order does not contain explosives (ammo, primers, powder) we are able to ship to anyone in Canada - in some cases we will ship your order with Canada Post instead of Canpar. When this happens I will send you an email letting you know this has happened.
    If your order is under $300 our webstore will calculate the freight charges. This is an automatic agreement we have with Canpar and Canada Post. If I were to call in your quote it would not be as good of a rate as the online rate.
    The areas we aren't able to ship to in Canada (orders containing explosives) are primarily the far north. At this point in time our webstore will offer free freight to anywhere - however when it is a $200 freight bill for $300 worth of ammunition we will send you an email with the offer to cover some ($35 +/-) of the costs. You would need to cover the remaining costs of this shipment. I hope this is understandable.
    Thank you for your business.

    It was a good batch, so much so I am getting some more: hopefully with lots of that S&B brass. (hint hint)

    I get quite a few emails asking about specific brass arrival. I don't mind the emails but I thought I would post an answer for everyone.
    We sort constantly - last year more than 100 tons. When we get the brass sorted down to single calibres (not brand headstamps) we polish them and bag them for sale. Then we put them on the webstore for sale. There is no telling what is going to show up until they are sorted.
    Please watch the webstore daily for your calibre to show up.
