    A .45 weekend

    I went to the range to scrounge brass this weekend. There wasn't hardly anything Saturday, others beat me to it. But Sunday, it looked like a .45 kind of day. I found (in addition to the plethora of .45 ACP) at least 100 .45 LC, over 20 .454 Casull and a handfull of .45-70. Someone was having fun! And they just tossed all that brass. My gain, I guess.

    bobthenailer got the brass / nut wizzard. But IIRC, it's a one size fits all kind of deal.

    Those things are fantastic! Might not work so well in tall grass though.

    Just be careful for the ones with the stamp of Amerc. It sucks and is unreloadable! That is for the 45 acp. It won't hold a primer and is the spawn of the devil! If you have a bunch throw it out in a place you know people scrounge brass just to piss them off!
