Default Cost of brass

Is 0.80/round reasonable for once fired 300win mag brass? I'm looking for about 200 and found a place selling it for this.

Brass has gone up quite a bit in price as with all else shooting related in the last couple years. $0.80 per for new is in the range of decent price although I dont reload for 300wm. For a box of 50 new nosler brass you will be in the $120 range ( $2.40 per) for comparison

You can get prvi 300wm brass for 100/$100 at budget shooter supply, it's pretty good stuff, been using it for awhile now.

How many reloads are you getting out of the PRVI stuff?

I'm on my 4th reload. I don't load them to hot though, 79gr of h1000 with 180gr accubonds. Cases look perfectly fine, no signs of neck splits, or loose primer pockets, it's even passed the paper clip test. I'm sure I'll eventually find out when it fails, but so far so good.

At that price I would just buy new. WW, Remington or Privi are all available for under $1 a piece new.
