Brass Processing Services?

[serevince]

I don't want to deal with swaging primer pockets. I've got 22+lbs each of once fired military 9mm and 5.56. All in various states of prep. All tumbled, and a few deprimed.

I'd to drop it in the mail, and get back ready to go brass. Cleaned, deprimed, swaged, trimmed, sized, the works.

Google turned up a couple.

I emailed Blue Ridge, but haven't heard back.

MS Processing's site says no 9mm right now. Called to double check, but mailbox is full.

Thanks

Vince

MS Processing shows it's accepting 5.56 on their site.

Talked to this guy. He's definitely accepting 5.56.

I gotta say that ready to load 556 brass is 100-150/1k why would you want to pay to process yours? It’s 18$ each way in a medium flat rate for that much. Unless someone does it for the fun of it you’re gonna spend more money. Yours is worth 60-80/1k there is a guy named singleshot on this forum that sells it. If not southpaw supply has it in stock

Your math is off by a bit. 22lbs of 5.56 is about 1600. $80+18= .06 a round.... All once fired LC 5.56, not mixed range brass. ( return shipping is included) Not to mention it was originally free to me. Feel pretty good about .06 a case given our current circumstances.

FWIW, Everyone is processing .223/5.56. I haven't found anyone processing 9mm. Unfortunately that's the one I really need. My faux subguns eat 9mm like a belt fed. Luckily the smile is almost as big.

All once fired lake city is the same thing as mixed range brass especially in a ar15. (Assuming that processing service actually processes and returns your actual brass) You’d still have to weight sort it and probably anneal it. I don’t don’t see the point of chasing a 20sd over a 25sd inside of 300yrds. You should buy better brass honestly if you want good results out of a bolt gun or precision minded ar15. You’re also forgetting that the brass you have is worth something even in scrap it’s worth 22-40$ For 22lbs. So I’d say it’s worth 80-100 shipped for 1600 cases as it’s sits. Do what you want I just thought I’d share some insight. Also processed 9mm goes for 60/1k given current ammo prices that’s stupid cheap.

I use M&S Processed Brass, Mario does a great job. I tried a couple others and didn’t have such good luck, so I went back to MS. It comes out to be about .04 per piece of .223.

I do not agree with you need premium 223 brass or else accuracy is poor. I have also been using m&s to process my brass and 1/2 Moa is no problem out of a good bolt gun.

I didn’t say you needed premium brass. This is a post about time vs money/ bang for buck. I said you need to do more to work to non premium brass to obtain premium results. Therefore the value isn’t there. I also have to ask what distance are getting half moa at? All the way to 6-700yrds?or just at 100? I mean I have a 11.5” bcm lw upper that shoots an inch at 100 bulk processed mixed 55gr Hornady Fmj with 26gr of cfe loaded on a progressive. But a 12” gong at 500 is quite a bit more challenging. And I can’t hit it every time maybe 6 outta 10. Maybe less depends on the day but I’ll tell you this it takes at least 5-6 shots to hit it once lol.

I shipped to crafted ballistics and then I’m just seeing Blue Ridge is 15 minutes from my house
$20 cheaper per 1000 and I could’ve saved $50 on shipping.

Not sure what you were getting quoted but .223/5.56 is $45/1000, which is listed on his site. I just spoke to him at Blue Ridge.
