I went through a brass buying phase just before and during the powder shortage.
I have a couple hundred 275 Rigby cases kicking around [for turning into 300 XCB brass]
stuff like 500 factory new Remington nickel plated 30-30 cases, sized and primed 308's, 45 win mag brass [I don't even have a 45 win mag] some 375 win and 7x57 brass is stored away for the future and a bunch of other odd's and ends I know I'll never use is packed up in one cabinet.
I have told the kid's a few times they will either thank me or curse me when they get to digging through stuff in another 30 years.

I don't know what it was but new nickel Remington 30-30 brass was everywhere a few years ago. I'm not in love with it but man it was cheap and I grabbed a bunch of it off S&S threads for 10-15 cents a pop here and there when no one else was buying. One nice thing about nickel brass is it makes load segregation easy.

I figured if nothing else I could load them up with some home swaged 150's for the savage and the stevens,
find a nice 4 power scope and use one of them as a truck gun.
