Where can I get new lake city 223 brass?  I've been looking all over and I haven't had much luck.  If anyone could help I'd appreciate it.

The old Lake City was a military productioin facility and it was not sold commercially. Everything was once fired or decommissioned.

Isn't Black Hills ammo Lake City Brass?  I know the blue box 223 is marked LC.  I haven't ever checked the black hills red box brass.

Idle question:  Why does it have to be new??  The Black Hills stuff is "remanufactured".

The black hills stuff I have is from different lots.  It really doesn't have to be new I was just thinking it'd be just as easy to go get it soemwhere like it is remington or winchester.

Both black hills blue box and the ultramax ammo use once fired lake city brass.  The red box black hills is new ammunition and is stamped BHA MATCH.
