Gents / Ladies -
I have some once-fired military 5.56 brass that I have reconditioned as follows:
5.56mm
- Inspect all brass and discard as appropriate;
- De-primed;
- Wet Polished in a Big Dawg Tumbler for 4 hours with stainless steel media, Lemme Shine, and Dawn;
- Swagged using a Dillon Super Swage 600;
- Re-sized on a Redding Competition Full Length Sizing Die;
- Trimmed to SAAMI Spec'd Length - 1.760;
- Chamfer / Deburred; and
- Visually Inspected.
300 BLK
- Inspect all brass and discard as appropriate;
- Deprimed;
- Trim Case Length;
- Wet Polished in a Big Dawg Tumbler for 4 hours with stainless steel media, Lemme Shine, and Dawn;
- Swagged using a Dillon Super Swage 600;
- Re-sized on a Redding Competition Full Length Sizing Die;
- Trimmed to SAAMI Spec'd Length - 1.368;
- Chamfer / Deburred; and
- Visually Inspected.
I use Mitutoyo Absolute 500-197-20 digital calipers for all measurements.
Below are some pictures of the brass that I am currently processing, these are pre-tumble and thus do not have their original shine back yet.

My prices are pretty reasonable:
1,000 pieces of 5.56 - $200.00
1,000 pieces of 300 BLK - $250.00
500 pieces of 5.56 - $120.00
500 pieces of 300 BLK - $150.00
100 pieces of 5.56 - $25.00
100 pieces of 300 BLK - $31.25
If you have any questions, please let me know and PM me if you are interested. I have a couple thousand pieces in stock right now and am awaiting a shipment in excess of 100,000 pieces. I also do have some pistol brass (9mm, .40 cal, and .45 cal) and am more than willing to process that for someone. I usually keep all the pistol brass for myself for my USPSA matches and for classes.
Just a reminder this is not loaded ammunition, just brass that is ready for you to drop in a primer, powder, and bullet.
Thanks.
