Hi my name is bigstones and I am a brass whore.
Thanks guys and gals, great to be a member of this group meeting.
Well last week because of some strange confluence of the heavens and the Reno Gun Show none of the guys who pounce on the brass buckets at my local range was around. There was a five gallon bucket of pistol brass about half full. I grabbed my Trader Joe's bag and poured away (I left a bunch of other buckets for others with a similar addiction). When I got home I started to sort it. There must have been some kind of law enforcement event at my range because there were about 1k of 9mm almost all of it once fired Speer; 700 40S&W all of it Federal and 500 45ACP all Federal. I am busy prepping it as we speak.
Thanks for listening. I just wanted to say WOOHOO!

7I so know that feeling. That's probably why I have 3000 lbs of lead sitting in my shop.

9 You should thank all those nice law enforcement officers for leaving you quality brass. Have fun reloading!
