    Fascinating. Do you scrap the brass or is there a market for the shells as they are?

    Thank you ! I am scrapping most of them, there is a market but i have to clean them and that would cost me time and cleaner. So i usually just throw them in the brass bucket.
    The US Army left so much of them in our woods, that it would be to much to sell them one by one.
    German shells are more expencive but they are harder to find.
