    Best place to buy 44 spec brass?

    I never see once fired 44 spec brass for sale, does anybody know where I can get some or who has the best price on new brass?

    I can walk into any of many local gun stores and just buy some. Did recently, in fact. But I don't know about where you live.

    If I were going to order some and pay shipping, I'd call Starline. Good folks.

    Starline when they have it instock, sell the excess to your needs online(their prices are shipped).If they don't have it in stock search for the best deal you can get shipping included online.

    Try the closest handgun range.

    Most of them that I have used sell their pickups at very reasonable prices.

    Try these folks at Graf and Sons. I order from them often but I checked and they're currently out but I'd still check often. Not once fired but new if interested.

    Midway seems to have it in stock.

    I have found that Starline has the best prices on new brass (their prices include shipping) and the quality of brass is excellent.

    They may or may not have any in stock. Just look at their web site:

    http://www.starlinebrass.com/index.p...542be2ba82c803

    They show out of stock until 7/31/2011. I suggest you IMMEDIATELY get your order in. That way, you will insure you get yours when they run them. They have been good in the past with their date estimates.

    About half of my Special Cases are Split Mag Cases that were Trimmed, using a $10 Lee Case Trimmer and a Makita Drill.

    Mal Paso - this is my last/next resort...

    All others - yeah, out of stock - been that way for months - everywhere!!! Also, no offense, but I have NEVER seen pickup 44 SPC and ANY range. Never seen anyone just dump 'em on the ground...

    Looks like these guys have Remington in 100, 500 and 1000 case lots. I didn't call them, but it got put in the cart and went to the checkout without a "out of item" flag.

    Might be worth a try.

    What he said. Starline makes excellent brass. You might be able to purchase through Grafs or other suppliers.

    Starline is all I have ever used in .44 Special. Excellent brass, excellent prices. For my birthday, I ordered some .357 magnum brass. They said it would be back-ordered, but it got to me much quicker than what their website said it would.
