I would not pay more than 5p per case as that is what I get once fired RWS .308 for.

Hi Steve,
Hope all is well!
Where can I get once-fired RWS for 5p, and is it fired in sensible chambers?
Regards,
Bob.

Put me down for some 5p/piece RWS as well please, I will happily take a couple of thousand at that price!

Damn. Hate to miss a bargain.
Hate it too when I think I'm writing a pm but I'm not!
I blame the monks, and their ridiculous 'Christmas Beer'.

If you enter some of the open meetings at Bisley where the ammunition is issued RWS, you can often buy your cases at 5p each. The BCRC open is where I got several hundred this year. You cannot do this at the Imperial, though I think that you should be able to.

You should think yourself lucky that you weren't drinking Santa Claus Beer, I had it once, and woke up with a DRI - Drinking Related Injury!

The used 223 brass I've seen advertised is usually around the £6.00/100 mark.
The problem is you do not know what the history of each case is or whether all the cases come from the same source.
New is going to be a lot more expensive as you will have that certainty of condition.
