303 brass question

[oldstarfire]

Just got a bunch of Cdn military 303 brass(not ammo), 200 to 300, various dates, 1944 and up.
Some may have been reloaded, cant tell for sure.

Is this just scrap brass, or is there some demand?
Are certain markings sought after in particular?

Hope to sell, but willing to give dibs on anything scarce. Send PM if interested

If Its Boxxer primed, there is a market for it, as it is very good brass and is re-loadable. Berden, is scrap as the primers are impossible to get as they are a different diameter then most Berden primers.

I had some 1944 dated boxer primed brass.It lasted me 30+ reloadings with neck sizing and casts. Incredibly consistent brass producing very good results,better than new PPU.

I've been loading and shooting DI 44 brass for years. Probably the best 303 brass I've ever used.

The brass is not all 1944, but a lot is.
There are 238 brass cases.
Am going to list on EE for $25.00 plus shipping
