Pieces of 300blk Brass / Pound

Post by BlogSarge »

I've been saving my brass and putting it into boxes. No idea how many pieces I have. Has anyone weighed it to see how many pieces there are per pound?

And how many for 5.56/.223?

According to my scale: 84, 300BLK and 74, 556.

Give or take a case.

Thanks. I don't even reload and still started to gather by brass like they were gold. Probably cuz I started into the 300blk during the dark days when everything was scarce.

Good point. I used to, then sold ny gear years ago. If I ever start shooting more It'd pay to get another press and dies.
