[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 543046, member: 307"] The method I use has developed over my 25 yrs of reloading. The most number of cases I have for one lot is about 250 .243 Win (Rem). I own several rifles and except for the .243 only keep about 100-150 cases of the same lot on hand for all my rifles. I use two gallon Ziploc bags (one inside the other) to keep my brass separated. Everything in the "outside" gallow bag is stock, they are all the same headstamp. I put a 2x2 sticky note, folded on itself inside with the number of times the cases have been fired. This starts out as a "once fired" bag. I take them from this bag as I need them. Prep (tumble/anneal as needed), load and shoot. The empties go in the "inside" gallon bag. Inside here I have another sticky note with the number of times these have been fired. This will be my "twice fired" bag. Once all the cases in the outside (once fired) gallon bag have been prepped and shot, they should all be in the inside "fired twice" gallow bag. Now I just throw away the "once fired" sticky note and make up a "3rd firiing" sticky note and put that in the empty bag. This empty bag goes inside the "twice fired" bag and will be my future "3rd firing". I keep all my cases in the same cardboard box under my desk/reloading bench. Hope this makes sense. JohnnyK.
