I didn't dare put this up in the classified section. I've got about 3K pieces of 40 cal brass and enough powder to fill them. Also got about 2500 rounds of 40 cal ammo that I'm looking to get rid of. The ammo is NIB not reloads. What would this sell for these days? Any idea?

I hunted 4 of the 5 weekends down south this January. Sat water mostly and only saw one buck and doe together and that was the weekend of the 16th. Also when I was driving to and from I saw many, many does and not one of them had a buck in tow. Last year was really weird too. Guess that is why they call it hunting.

Desert Bowhunting without the illegals
recurveman replied to JimmyHat's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
So, here is my rule. If I go south of Phoenix I carry a handgun. If I go south of Tucson I carry a handgun and a long gun. There are desert units that you can hunt that wont have illegal activity.....well at least less illegal activity. The local street corners have illegals on them but its different than running into them in the field. Typically north of phoenix will have very little illegal activity. I've run into many drug runners, illegals, and twice I've run into guys that weren't from the US that had black guns. It does give you an rush that is much higher than hunting animals. Typically they won't try and kill you. If they shoot at you it is just to scare you. Keep you distance and you will probably be fine. -
Barrel Replacement with Factory Barrel - Headspace?
recurveman replied to 40-year-AZ-hunter's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Does your current barrel shoot good? Who said you should replace your barrel? My .243 has throat erosion. The gun probably has 500-600 shots down the tube and I'll probably never shoot the barrel out. If the gun shoots fine I would keep shooting it. If you are worried about iron sights I'm guessing that accuracy isn't your first objective anyways so keep the current barrel. Even a barrel that is shot out will shot good enough for hunting in most cases. -
everything will get back to normal......

Hey chicken little...... The sky isn't falling. Everything will be fine.

Then reloading isn't for you.....unless you want to drive tacks at 1000 yards. But then you would shoot more than 4 bullets a year to obtain that type of accuracy.

Not sure where you would buy ammo. My guess is the ammo will be back on the shelf before the components will be. Plus, I'm guessing you don't need 7MM ammo until next summer at the earliest. You will find it before then if you keep searching. I've got a buddy that has been looking for BR-2 primers for well over 2 months (daily searches) and hasn't been able to find any. Powder doesn't last very long either. Sometimes you can walk into Bruno's and find stuff but that is hit and miss. My solution is pretty simple. I buy enough components for the life of my barrel once I find the load I like. So I might buy 1000 bullets/ primers/ enough brass and powder to make 1000 rounds....depending on the barrel. Then I've always got what I need and typically I don't have to mix and match lots. Powder will vary between lots and I don't want that issue. So in your case. I would buy that much ammo and be done. Sounds like a bunch but I've never been disappointed with buying a grip of ammo/components all up front. I had this same problem before.......it won't happen again.
-
If you are just looking for ammo then I would just go buy the ammo and be done. Finding components right now is about impossible. Then it will take a few times to the range to find the load that works for your gun. finding primers and powder is really, really tough.

Let me ask you this question. What are you trying to accomplish with having someone else to the reloading?
