Hi Redcat, I have a couple of hundred Radway Green brass which I was sorting out this weekend funnily enough. Some of it is factory fired and some have been reloaded and shot. The latter have had the military primer crimp removed using an RCBS primer pocket swager so it will accept regular boxer primers easily enough.

If you still require more brass after dealing with Safetyfirst and hobbesy let me know.

Do you still need any? and if so how many?

I have a few thousand surplus cases waiting to be cleaned up, all once fired but left as fired. Mostly marked RG, LC, IVI, IMI, FC but a few others in the mix. Some have crimped primers but of those I've used they clean up well and reload load just fine.

Thanks for all the offers, guys. Hopefully these few from Safety first will get a new project off the ground but I will keep all of your offers in mind for the future. Of course, if anyone wants to throw any away I'll send you my address! :D
