Hey all, I am still busy with school but I just had to jump on here and brag a bit. I went to a yard sale the other day and I picked up a crap load of reload able brass, a new 100 count box of nosler .224 bullets, and a new lee .223 die set all for $5.00

Yard and garage sales can be productive. Quite a few years ago I happened to stop by one and saw a box with a lot of mixed gun parts, including two barrels and stocks. I figured there must be something in there I could use, so I asked the price. The lady said no one was interested just a box of parts, so I could have it for just taking it away. Those parts, once put back together, were actually two old Stevens .22 rifles in good shape and both shot very well. Made good presents for my kids.
Good find for you and certainly a good price!

Cool. I have managed to pick up some war cutters for a 38 also. A box of 500 I recently got at a yard sale for $2 .
