Don't have load data, but do have 124 WCC 87 fireformed, swaged crimp and tumbled 25 TCU brass; another 206 WCC 84 brass same way, 257 TCU. You're the one that wants "reasonable priced" brass, what's your idea of "reasonable priced for the lot? Shipping will be actual. I suspect these were fireformed nato rounds, deprimed, pockets swaged and then tumbled.

Well sir I just paid $70.00 plus $9.55 for 300 7mm TCU all Remington commercial brass ready to load off GB. I have heard but have no experience with if using surplus brass that it splits after couple of firings. Maybe you can shed some light on the subject. That said, I will offer you $60.00 plus shipping for the total lot of 25 TCU brass.
Best Regards,
LeRoy

Leroy,
I've never used military/surplus/range brass always been commercial 50 or 100 lots, so I don't have experience to share. I have "heard"/read that it "pays" to anneal, occasionally (even commercial) brass as it "work hardens" (which I do know about, all metals do). That said, your offer seems fair enough to me, and within the agreement I have with the donor as the proceeds are going to our charity project for needy families of fallen warriors and disabled american vets. I'll need your shipping (mailing address) so I can get these off to you Monday so I'll know a total from whatever shipping amounts to. I'll send it "cheapest way" w/tracking. I'm guesstimating 5/6 pounds.
Jim

You might ask a question in "reloading" (in the General Area) about some reload data for the 25/257 TCU, I only shoot the 7 TCU
