Anyone have any leads on where I can find some 25-35 brass? Don't care about the head stamp.

Thanks.

Let me check my ammunition stash. I've been toting a box if CIL ammo around since the 70's when I had my Win 94 in 25-35.

I'd sure appreciate it if you would check, GaCop! I'm really having a hard time finding some! PM me if you are able find it and we'll work out the details on paying you for the brass and where to send it. Thanks a lot!

BTW, GaCop, I'm going to be running around quite a bit over the next few days, and will have rather spotty access to the internet, so if you don't hear from me right away, it's NOT because I've lost interest, but because I've lost the internet for a while. If you got some brass, I'll buy it!

There's a cat on gunbroker that does a nice job of resizing 30-30 brass; I've used his brass in my 22 Hipower and it lasts and lasts. I think he wants 30 bucks for 50 rounds, which is about what you'll pay for the new stuff when it becomes available again, and to tell the truth, it might just be better than the current winnie offering--I don't know who they've got making it, but it's lighter than the old gray-box and white-box stuff they sold a few years back. I just pitched about 30 rounds of worn-out 25-35 brass that was beginning to get head separation; may hafta get in touch with him myself. Dang, that 25-35 is fun to load for and shoot! (Of course, so's the 22 Hipower, the 303 Savage, and the 32-40. Never have enough 1899's!
Mind yer topknot!

I searched my stash of old ammunition and can't find the CIL ammo I had, sorry.

Thanks a lot for looking through your stash for me! I've got some lined up, so I'm going to be in good shape.
