gnatshooter Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Friends, I live out in the country, where I can shoot as much as I want. I'm accumulating a lot of once-fired .308 Win brass, as it just seems a shame to leave it lying on the ground. The question is what to do with the brass that's piling up. I don't reload, and don't know anyone who reloads. Seems to me, I should be able to donate the spent brass for a good cause. Has anyone out there heard of people, like maybe the NRA or Wounded Warrior, accepting donations of spent brass? I would then recommend that my LGS join up as a 'collection site' for spent brass donations -- and that would give me another good reason to visit my LGS! Any thoughts out there?

planeflyer21 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 That's a nice idea gnat! One idea...check with the local 4H or Boy Scouts, find out if they teach shooting and reloading. They'll gladly accept donated goods! Worst case, sell it on Gunbroker. I've never seen any not sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shibiwan Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) I trade my spent brass to a buddy who does reloading in exchange for MOAR AMMO! The last time I think I traded 200+ shell cases for 135 round of reloaded .308 (175gr BTHP). Math doesn't add up but I'm not complaining!

unforgiven Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 In the past I have taken my brass to the gun show and traded for ammo.4H or boy scouts is a better idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketch Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 At some point I saw a site that takes brass for loaded but can't recall the name I also have tons of brass just waiting to be loaded!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
