Somebody (maybe here on BT) gave me some 30.30 brass a while back. I got a free moment so tossed them in the tumbler. Then took a look at it and about 10% of the cases show signs of excessive stretching just forward of the web have a case diameter .005 to .007 over the rest of the cases. The case lengths are 2.065+(about .025 over) and the length to the shoulder is approximately .030 over unfired.

So if anybody remembers sending them PM me. Hopefully these were just a few extra from range pickup. If not, will be worth a look.

Ryan Yep, been out for a while. Busy keeping up with shit.

Now that you mention it very well the brass could have come with that one of a kind historic receiver you parted with. Still not finished with that project. That would explain the mix of manufacturer; if so, glad it was not your 30.30.

Let me know if you need some more. (I don't shoot it, but can collect it from the range I run if you need it). I probably have some for you here in my garage, PM or email me.

Mike B - Thanks for the offer but I have enough for a while.

Just wanted to pass the info on and now I do remember where it came from.

Tim - Been trying to live up to the BT expectations of a good Gubment employee, seems to be taking all my time. Judging by the pic you finally came around. Remember he needs YOUR HELP to 'fix' your country.
