I find this a never ending frustrating topic, range brass pickup. Back in the mid '80's when I started to shoot IPSC I policed up as much of my expended brass as I could. Nothing has changed in my shooting competitively for the last 36 years. Apparently todays generation has more discretionary income then I did back at their age, as it is a very rare experience to see any of them pickup brass for any type of reloading.

Odd isn't it the 2 ends to the reloading rope from never to as much as possible. I don't plan on saving every case ever left, but I'd like to have a big pile of it. This allows me to sort by maker. A friend of mine asked how i was fixed for 9mm brass, I brought a Czech x39 ammo crate of it over to him and told him take what you want.
The 2 calibers i swage into something else end up as 300 Savage from .308 Win and the Grendel from x39.Comment

Garand, I doubt they reload and it is probably a good idea. IMO, they look at the price of a reloading setup and pay retail by the box. They own "guns", but they aren't gun people.Comment

Well now I have gotten through many MANY boxes, I'm gettig stuff sorted. I've gotten the dillon sorted, except I bent a funky shouldered bolt they use. But prior to that I got 300 or so .308 WIN 155 gr FMJ done up. Now that I'm all chill with that I'm going to load some 6.5x55 Swede on my single stage. I'll then be processing a bunch of 6.5x39 (LP Grendel) from the bunch of 7.62x39,That means resizing /deprimg it on the single stage, Then length trimming them to size, tumbling them, before I send them through the Dillon.
But I broke out my annealer and im guessing humidity got to my timer switch., as it wont set. Amazon . com to the rescue. Even with the crappy exchange and import fees it's still cheaper to buy it cross on your side. Delivery Dec 9 they claim.Comment

As you already have what you need ordered, this is a day late and a dollar short. OTOH, if the need ever arrives again...
Due to the expense of having non standard manufactured very few fasteners are truly "custom." Here one can find just about anything: https://www.mcmaster.com
