    22 rimfire... ?

    It's basically worth what the scrap metal yard is willing to pay...
    Which is less than spot price of $2.21 /pound today...
    Probably about $1.50/ pound

    Most recyclers won't touch bulk brass from someone other than a range, etc...
    Because of the possible misfires generally included.

    You'll be lucky to get someone to haul it off for ya... [;)]

    Yep, saved up a zip lock bag full for someone who said they would pay the shipping for it and never heard from them again. I just dump it in the recycle bin.

    Another use is sand casting. Look around for someone who likes to sand cast brass tools or belt buckles. They have to pay a steep price for good brass from foundries or hobby stores. They might give you a good price for your .22 brass. [:D]

    22 rf cases are a gold mine for someone swages their own bullets, They are used for bullet jackets and Corbin makes swaging dies to form the jackets. Joyce Hornady and Vernon Speer used 22 cases for bullet jackets in their early days of bullet making
