Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Any interest? 50 Sharps 3 1/4" Loaded ammo and brass

Just pulled them out to look at. I dont know if they are reloaded or original. Looking at them there are 2 different grain bullets. I took a few pictures so you can see what is there. I noticed on some of the cases that the primer has been removed.
There are 43 loaded, 32 empty, 2 cases that look to have been trimmed and 3 that have distortion at the top of the necks. Let me know if any other pics are needed.

I looked at new prices and am seeing $10 a round for ammo and $3.75-$4 for cases. I realize this isnt new and there is more to consider.
I am thinking $350 plus shipping but if you think that is out of line and can show me something to back up a lower price I will definitely reconsider.

Right now I have been contacted by PM and that person is first in line.

Be a gentleman and put specific info in your thread title.

I am interested in 50/140 Sharps ammmo/brass

Why?

It will help to determine if there is any interest.

No thanks, I’ve got plenty of Sharpies.

Do you have those in red?

😂😂😂

Is this still available?

I found my new selling platform on here, that's if I ever sell anything on here

Your absolutely right. I thought about that after I went to bed last night.
Fixed it!

Ballpark count and price would be helpful.

Talley and price?

I'll research for a price.

I apologize for not being better prepared. More info in original post.

I get the comment but I spend way too much time on a couple other forums. I really should cut back on my time there also. That said I have spent a ton of time reading posts on here and have made some pretty sizeable purchases from members on here including a rifle for my son and a nice scope for myself. So I'm not just on here for sales!

PM to you

Saved you some time and effort.

Count is 35 EMPTY and 2 cut short (They don't count). half are corroded.............
43 LOADED (not shootable because nobody knows what is in them)............

Now we just need a price.

I will give you $50.00 shipped for the works and not charge anything for pulling the lead..........

Thank you for the very generous offer!
I will pass for now.

I would never want to sell something that could be a hazard to another person. I did some research and decided to try to clean some of the worst cases that I could quickly pull out.

4 of these I did a quick vinegar and salt soak. Then a real good rinse with soapy water. I realize some people don't like this method but I have seen lots of posts saying it's OK if not soaked too long. I also read that the military did it for years.

The 2 pieces in the first picture are some of the worst.
I just used Brasso and metal polish on those. I didn't touch the base of the 1 piece so I could see the difference after cleaning and a quick polish.

The rest I did a quick polish on also. I can see absolutely no pitting or defects that I think would be cause for concern.

Here are the before and after pics.
