I know this may be a strange request, but this forum is a great resource for info, especially the unusual.

I am looking for 6 ea .243 cal spent rounds, with jacketed projectiles pressed. No live primer or powder. Brass in decent shape to be polished.

Possibly could handle other calibers, but prefer .243Win

Thanks in advance, GC

"No live primer or powder"
That takes all the fun out of it. :rolleyes:

You may be better off with new live rounds. Use a bullet puller and pull the bullet out of the case. Then dump the powder and fire the primer. Then put the bullet back into the pretty case.

Gary, I'll check with my neighbor, he's a reloader, and get back to you.

Edited to say, I was thinking of what Kenneth said also. Once you pull the bullet, you can light the powder and blow the primer, then put it back together and polish away.

Gary - I have some 6mm empty brass cases that are in good shape. They would be really close to a .243 caliber. The bullets that I have are Hornady boat tail hollow points.

I have some .222 that I reload. .222 with a 52 grain boat tail hollow point.

Kenneth & Scott...
Backi the day I would have jumped at the chance. Now days, loose gunpowder is akin to terrorism. Be good boys!

I am going to try Brad's 6mm as they are closer to my 1/4" brass inserts.

Thanks to all

Is there a firing range by you? They may have some they would part with
