Hey, thanks Fish! I plan to reload this in the future.

I think the last 7.62x39 brass I bought was IMI. I haven't loaded a round in years. The import stuff, the 154 Wolf/Tula/etc is good and cheap. 
I'm not really sure why, but I've never bought any Starline brass. I'm thinkin' it might be a little higher dollar or something. I am cheap, ya know. :rofl:

Well do you know that I have a Birthday coming up soon, and that I can use some more 10 MM Brass?
Just thought I would mention that, Mingaa is already getting me a Gift Certificate from Starline I hear!----
You kidding? By the time we buy all the candles for your cake, we'll all be broke!Well do you know that I have a Birthday coming up soon, and that I can use some more 10 MM Brass?

I have only ever loaded hunting ammo for that reason and then I discovered the Wolf 154 soft point is death to hogs.
Since getting that M4, I've not fired a lot of 7.62x39 at targets. Still kill hogs with it, though.
don't forget to wear the aluminized crash rescue/ suits as well before I light all the candles up!!You kidding? By the time we buy all the candles for your cake, we'll all be broke!
heres a pic of my LAST Birthday party.

Yeah, I lost a couple of Starline 10mm brass not long ago - yup, kicked around in the gravel for about 20 minutes before I just gave up and went home!!
seriously though - Starline direct sells a minimum of 500 cases BUT the dealers that they wholesale to re-bag the bulk buys and sell bags of 100 and up. 100, 10mm are usually about $20 and, yeah, they typically beat Rem, Winny and the others ‘big’ boys!
Check the notes on the 7.62 - they are sized for .311 and need neck sizing at least to shoot .308 - according to their notes.
Brass in general is expensive as all get out now days. I was looking at .45ACP brass at Academy, think it was Winchester. 100 pieces, they wanted something around 40 bucks! Heck, I can buy 100 rounds of .45ACP loaded ammo in reloadable brass for about that or maybe a little less. Then I can enjoy practicing while I collect the ammo.
The nifty thing about the SKS, remove the gas piston and you have a straight pull bolt gun, no need to chase the brass.

True, but if you put a large trashcan about 10 feet behind you, it should drop right in, right?Brass in general is expensive as all get out now days.
