Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

45 70 brass is nonexistent it seems. I don't get why such a common caliber isn't more readily available..
.
There is a bunch on castboolits right Now.
Just listed today. Listed under the swappin & sellin section.

Locally there hasn't been any brass for 380, 45 ACP, 45 Colt, 30-30 for more than a couple years. But there has been lots of 357 even through the recent ammo/reloading supply shortage.
I got plenty 45 auto.

Don't listen to people that say you don't need more guns and ammo. No one needs that kind of negativity in their lives!!

brass and bullet zone sent out an email concerning once fired. I've purchased from them in the past and have been happy.

I seen a bunch on castboolits.gunloads.com, but a buck a piece is too rich for my wallet. I'm glad a few guys came through with decent, reasonable offers when I needed some. I have enough for quite some time now. Good luck.

Starline had the brass available on their website a few weeks ago.

I got lucky - there was an auction 2 miles from my house this weekend. The amount of reloading stuff was stunning. I got 400 .357 Winchester brass, 400 Starline .44 brass, 800 .357 XTP’s, 400 .44 XTP’s - the whole lot was about half what you could order it for from the box stores. Since it was a sale from a local shop there were a bunch of resellers and small shop owners there. They were stocking for their stores. I should have taken pics. Friday night, Saturday from 9-7 and today from noon to 7. The other half of the auction is in May. But the reloading, black powder, knives, scopes, fishing gear are gone. Next is trapping, scope mounts, holsters, etc. There was about every caliber of brass there (mainstream calibers and a few others). 45/70 was one of them.

I'm short on brass. I have plenty of ammo. Hmmm, maybe I should free up some of the brass from that ammo. 😊

I am waiting on Starline back orders for 45 colt and 300Hamr. I have enough of both to keep shooting but it would be nice to have some new brass.
