[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1430527, member: 2736"] I generally don't have problems with enough brass for any of my rifles because before I start a project, I locate and purchase at least 200 rounds first. Then start accumulating all the other parts that are not hard to find. then when I come across good deals on more, i will try to get enough to give me at least 300 rounds. Having 300 + rounds of brass for each of my rifles has been a good idea and save me lots of trouble. if I sell the rifle I can always get my money back for new brass. (I use batches of 100 until they are worn out and everything else i have is still new and easy to sell if i want to. There has been several rifles that brass has become extinct and having extra brass has came in handy during hard times. It seems a shame that brass has been responsible for the demise of many good cartridges, and it sounds like the WSMs and the Rums have fallen on hard times for those that didn't plan ahead due to brass shortages. I also look for other older cartridges that can be used to form the needed cases and with a little research, It is surprising the number of current cases that can be substituted for hard to get cases. Modern cartridges come and go so It is wise to buy plenty of cases in the beginning and not be caught short, especially if you really like the cartridge and rifle. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
