Prvi Partisan Brass Sale at Grafs
Wandered across a good sale on Prvi Partizan brass at Grafs, bought a lot of pistol brass for 50% off! Didn't want to, but I ended up deflating their inventory a bit. To use my wife's analogy, I spent $400 but saved $400, so it didn't cost me a thing!
Prvi Partizan has become my favorite as I like it's quality, annealed brass with the most consistent primer pocket I've worked with. Starline is on my list next, displaced from first choice simply because of cost.

Re: Prvi Partisan Brass Sale at Grafs
For what cartridge did you buy? Some of the prices aren't much different than normal. I was intrigued by 50% off.
I gotta buy some bullets from them if my barrel ever shows up.

The pistol and revolver cartridges that weren't already sold out; 32 Auto, 380 Auto, 38 Spl, 45 Auto, and 9mm Luger. They were all 50% off, about 8¢ to 11¢ a case. I bought some more 7.62x39, but it was only 14% off.GasGuzzler wrote:For what cartridge did you buy? Some of the prices aren't much different than normal. I was intrigued by 50% off.

I've got enough 9mm, 380, 38 Special and 45 ACP to last me through a couple of lifetimes, I suspect! Sure don't need any more. At least for now!

Re: Prvi Partisan Brass Sale at Grafs
The one thing that I've learned Charley is that you can never go wrong when you can buy new brass when it is at a price like what it is being offered on this sale. I have all I need too, but this will stay in the sealed bags just in case I don't. If kept sealed, it will sell for more money than I paid.Charley wrote:I've got enough 9mm, 380, 38 Special and 45 ACP to last me through a couple of lifetimes, I suspect! Sure don't need any more.

I learned that lesson this past year. A decade prior, I bought a bunch of 375 Win brass on clearance at a store in San Antonio that was closing. I bought every bag they had (14), cheap. Ended up preferring 38-55 Win for my cast bullet use in those rifles and never opened a bag. I decided I wanted more guns and maybe that brass would generate the money. I sold all fourteen bags at $125/bag over what I paid for them. Yeap, $125 profit on each of the 14 bags. Sold it all in a few hours. I know this is not common brass now, but it was when I bought it and no one wanted it.
I have all kinds of brass that I don't need but I'm not in a hurry to move it as it only will increase in value. I would like to hunt desert mule deer in Mexico before I take the dirt nap, I will probably fund the hunt with guns I haven't been shooting and brass that I bought at discount prices.

Re: Prvi Partisan Brass Sale at Grafs
I buy in calibers I don't own when prices are low. Sometimes I return the favor as with some .32WFC brass I sold recently for cheap. Sometimes I ask what it's worth. I turned a lot of Starline .357 in 2013 because people were panick buying. I sent my last extra NM Blackhawk trigger spring for free the other day because someone needed it and I know where to get more yet I made $250 on the AR I built and sold in a down market. I just contracted a deal for an S&W M&P 5.56 plus a Henry .22LR standard for the price of the Smith to use as a fundraisers for the local little league. LGS says ARs are still by far the most common buys. I keep building.

Re: Prvi Partisan Brass Sale at Grafs
Most of the larger quantities of brass I have I've picked up at estate sales, Craigslist and the like, mostly as part of larger purchases for reloading equipment.
