Fellas:
I just bought over a dozen cigar boxes of English brass and bullets.
Berdan primed brass. Does anyone out there load such brass? If so I have:
577 Snider--20
375 flanged--31
500 Nitro--24
450-400 3 1/4--5
475 no2--50
577 3"--199
If there is any interest PM and we can discuss a reasonable price.
Also, hundreds of .481-482" diameter English bullets weight of 480 grains
In the pics, you can see the brass and by the quantity see what I have.
The bullets are in the two metal tins and the three cigar boxes.
(front tins are .500m nitro bullets, Woodeligh are 475 no2 and .465 and the lead is for .577).

Cheers,
Cal

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
