Graybeard Sponsor, Reed1911,  http://shop.reedsammo.com/main.sc  has loaded ammunition at a reasonable price.  Ask him about brass, that is where I got the last I found.

Couple of major reloading component dealers here in the Ohio-Pa. area usually have it at the gun shows. Have you tried out there in Ca.? gypsyman

I've heard that Remington produces it every couple of years?  Is this true?

I don't know for sure what their schedule is , but it does seem to come around about every 2 years or so .

2 years about right.  I stocked the last time it was available and still have not cracked my last 500 pieces.  Next time it comes available I will pick up another 2000 pieces.


Got to keep the MAX's fed.

 Do you shoot your Maxi a lot or just reload one or two times? Thats a lot of brass.

I have 3 maxes so I shoot them a lot.  I will go out Saturday and shoot the DW and Ruger.h  I tend to shoot a 3 to 400 rounds at a time.  I have about 800 unloaded right now and so I might as well shoot some more and make another reloading run. 


Max brass does not last that long since I tend to load it to the "max".  I mean, come on, what is the point to download something like that?

All my Max brass is now loaded.  For some reason I have 1002 pieces of Max brass loaded.  Not sure how I ended up that way but what the heck.


I have to order in more 200 grn bullets and more 4227 before I load again.  I am plumb out.
