Was thinking the other day my stash of .45ACP is getting a bit low.
Had ordered from Brassman before and he'd been great to deal with and a pleasure to speak with on the phone. Also, when he had it in stock, you could buy like headstamps (my preference) instead of mixed.
Looked on his website and he retired Dec. 20.
Any good alternatives out there for buying once fired brass? Preferably sorted by headstamp?

LEO was good, but it’s getting a bit pricey.
If you want small primer pockets, I have a bunch you can have, just pay for shipping

Gunbroker, in the reloading section has quite a few offerings.
You can find vendors that offer mixed, once fired same headstamp & new.

NE Reloading is my go-to for brass and some bullets. They are great folks to deal with! LINKEd

The business has been sold. The new owner takes over after the 1st of the year. Still going to have great products and service. It was just after 30 years of doing brass and getting older I decided to go fishing and hunting before I couldn’t hike the hills!! Thank you for the kind words. John

Prob buy new direct from Starline cheaper than GB I've bought brass from all over the fuqing country including the manufacturer .. But I know how to shop & sometimes can find something scarce, or a good deal off GB. Just another source to find things. That's all. Offering it up. GB doesn't set prices, the vendors do. Yeah! one might be stupid, the next might have a competitive price. Just trying to help folks find hard to get items in scarce times.

No local brass scroungers in your area? Go out around here and they are waiting in their car for you to leave the range hoping you don’t pick up your empties. They post them online pretty cheap & saves shipping $ but you won’t be getting the same headstamp if that’s important to you.
@Brassman - thx for a Good product and enjoy retirement.

My dad did reloading supplies at gunshows.
Had a couple buckets of bagged mixed, sorted and once fired .45 acp.
With primers stupid priced, nobody wanted, so ended up selling at scrapyard.
