I have some obscure brass to give away to genuine shooters ie somebody who has the relevant firearm and actually fires it.
I do have a few 6,5 x 54 MS cases you can have for the cost of the postage.

Don't know as it is original Kynoch loaded ammo.
Yours if you want it. FAC entry needed and it is soft point ammo!

Haven't got any .35 Remington brass, have you?
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

I used to have a lovely 6.5x54mm MS takedown, wish I'd never sold it. I've still got several hundred Boxer-primed CIL cases and also some RWS brass stashed away somewhere and possibly a set of RCBS dies, I'll have to do some serious digging.
