Actually, there have been some people that have reloaded steel cased ammo.  The steel that wolf and others use is pretty soft.  I'm sure it would wear out the dies a little faster, but with the ammo shortage, it may be worth a try.

ive heard of that recycling plant but could never find the website for it....maybe i wasn't looking hard enough.  ill try looking again.

i may put up a classified ad as soon as i get them counted and put some organization into it.

How much 223 brass do you have and what do you want for it? I am also in Lincoln

Rich B:
The .22LR cases are not reloadable.  They do have value as scrap brass though.  Good on you for not littering. 

7.62x39 steel cases are almost always berdan primed and are, essentially, not reloadable.  Brass cased 7.62x39 has value to reloaders if it's not berdan primed (mil-surp usually is, commercial usually isn't).

1,000 .223 cases should bring between $70-$100.
