I have been asked by someone in the gun club to see if anyone has any spare 303 brass for sale or do you know of anywhere online that you can get some brass.
If you have brass for sale if you send me a pm I will pass on the persons phone number.

Saw some for sale on another forum today but it was £30 for 100

I know a few chaps that use it - want me to ask around?

How many does your mate need?

....and WHERE are you located?? (you need to add the info to your profile)

Saddler,

I have updated my profile to show I live in South Lanarkshire.

If you do not mind asking if the people you know have any 303 brass, the person at the moment does not have any brass so I would think He would want a few hundred.

How many does he want.
I could probably do a couple of hundred.

But with a disclaimer these cases have previously been re loaded by me at least once and fired in one of my .303 rifles using a 174grain flat base bullet with 41grains of Vitavouri N140.

As far as I know they are in good condition and are fit for purpose if you choose to purchase them and re load them to use in your rifle YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Oops before I get censored or receive another email slapping me on the wrist.

100 used cases £15.00 plus postage and packing. If you want all the same head stamps it may be a little bit more.

Evening Peeps,

I've got a 100 or so HXP/PPU trimmed,sized and primed ( also very shiny coz I believe in wire wool..) and I will be up north of uncle Hadrians brick pile in Mid March.
Would this be of any use ?
They are very shiny ! !!!!!!

You could always get your mate to order some new PPU cases from Henry Kranks. Personally I would not use fired brass that has no providence of how many times loaded and by persons unknown. New brass is the way to go, its not exactly expensive is it.

The easiest way to do it is to buy 100 rounds shoot it then re use the brass.
