So you hoard all your brass and you still dont think you will be reloading anytime soon? It turns out Freedom munitions will take spent brass for credit @2.50 per pound (10lb minimum) A decent way to offset your round counts if you have brass of any caliber they sell and meet the qualifications. See link below for more details.

Yeah but shipping it to them is what's going to cost you. Better to sell it off in person.

Thats actually a pretty good price, consider scrap yards are about $1.50 per lb.

 

But inreality... just sell the brass yourself if you are not going to use it... $30/k is the going rate for 9, 40, 45.

 

a piece of 40 cal brass is about 4.57 grams, so about 100 pieces of brass per lb.... so $15 in scrap value for 1k pieces of 40 cal.

 

You can sell it as brass for $30 per k... or double that.

flat bulk rate for usps isnt too bad. ship any weight that fits in the different sized boxes for one price. medium to large boxes are 10-15 bucks no weight restrictions.

Even cheaper if you use their boxes and click to ship....

Sorry that is what I was implying. Didnt know it was cheaper via click to ship though.. +1

You will make more money sorting it packaging it per 1k and selling it face to face. I believe their page is out of date as it has said $2.50 for a while. I'll use .40 as an example. Best price I have found for cleaned unprocessed brass shipped is about $42 lately unless you are buying a lot at once (like 4k +). .40 is about 10lbs per k. Sort it, tare your box, fill it until it is a bit over 10lbs to avoid arguments with anyone. Sell it for $30-35 face to face. $3-3.50 a pound. hit up a search engine, there are a number of places that list the weight of 1k of many calibers. Or you can weigh out one piece and do the math.
