I haven't acquired much brass since Obama was elected (the first time), I've been working off brass acquired over the years, so I can't be blamed for the current shortage.

BTW I have over 1200 pieces of 223 brass

I've never owned a 223...

Know what you mean... maybe someday you will own one. Or maybe you'll want to barter. Or something.

I've been reloading more than I've been shooting, I think that's a first. At this rate I'm going to have to shoot some so I'll have some brass. I think I've got things turned around here.

I was thinking of getting an Encore barrel in 223, I still might one day. I actually tried to give the brass away and nobody wanted it at the time so I just hung on to it.

I was a member of the civilian gun club at Fort Benning a number of years ago and people were leaving piles of 223 brass behind. I couldn't stand to see all that brass go to waste, so I would pick up a little every time I went to the range and throw it into a bucket at home.

Maybe I'll do a Karma with it
