I've been saving all my spent brass and picking up a few hundred pieces each time I go to the range. I only my semi-auto brass separated by caliber but I'm very much the revolver fiend and I separate my revolver rounds by caliber and brand. So far I've got Winchester White Box, Federal, PMC, and Remington. I've been told that Federal and PMC brass is the best for reloading but it was by someone who stopped reloading a few years back and has all but stopped shooting so I don't know too well what that opinion is worth.
I'm also looking to pickup a few bulk buys (500 or 1000rd purchases) because after S&H I get the ammo anywhere between 20 and 30% cheaper and when reloading as I understand it you stand to reload the ammo for anywhere between 15% and 30% cheaper depending on the caliber. Like reloading factory ammo you bought for 9 bucks, using the brass, you can reload it for the cost of 6 bucks.
So I was thinking Fiocchi, I understand it's pretty good quality but I may be wrong. And, the new Seller and Belliot brass case. I was wondering if anyone had any experiences with it, good or bad.
Also if it's not too much trouble can someone lay down some up-to-date savings figures on .357 and .44 magnum.
