It should sell, if once fired should also be as good as any.

Very good brass. I get 5-6 loadings with mine. Much better than current Remington brass in 303!I would price it at least same as new Remington or Winchester brass.I am a canadian otherwise I would have offered to buy all you have! But for world security reasons it is not possible to import brass casings from U.S.

We have not been able to get Remington 303 brass for about 10 years here I normally get up to 10 reloads using AR2209 annealing the necks with the AMP annealing machine, TTL - fls them all now as it was too painful just neck sizing and keeping it separated for each 303.
I have one brand new packet of Remington 303 brass that I'm keeping, I opened it up, annealed the necks after neck sizing them as some necks were out of shape.

I have some of that HXP brass from 1963, it's robust. Have 5 M2 ball loadings through them already and showing no signs of fatigue. The primers are staked so I used a bit in the drill press to remove the burrs and then my swaging tool to uniform the primer cups. It's an extra step but well worth it for quality brass.

Ron,
Ammo components all require export licensing. We can do it now through U.S. Dept. of Commerce but it's more time-consuming nonsense that no one wants to pay for. Part of the reason import/export work has gone to the bottom of my priority list and I'm no longer a broker. It's really only worth it if one brings a container full of stuff in one big shot.

I agree with you Brian sadly due to once again out topographical location everything is just to hard or has been for a long time, due to a certain part of the planet being in dire straights very shortly we are going to be reduced to yelling out bang and pretending its an X.
Such are the shortages of powders, cases and projectiles in our country, it won't matter for us in the West Au as the way our premier and his cronies are going we wont have any fire arms at all I get so wound up I won't go into it but you guys there protect your 2nd amendment with all you've got.
In fact I will say one thing I guess our premier here soon he will also start in on the armed services & police next as why should they have weapons I mean aaarrrgh!
No probs Raselkirk feel free to drop in if your ever in my neck of the woods we can have a good ol' chin wag show & tell be happy to oblige.
