My gun shop has some .444 Marlin once or maybe twice fired. Looks to be in good condition. 40 brass for 30 bucks. Only quantity they have my friend. Let me know if you want me to pick it up for you.

MM, have you tried fire-forming .303 Brit or .30-40 Krag brass? Not too difficult to do, and the brass is easier to find. . . .

I thought about that but it seems the 444 brass are a bit easier to work with, and with my current backlog I really don't have the time to do the 2-3 rounds of fire forming it takes to fully blow them out. .444 I can pretty much load as is. A good way to relax after a day in the shop.

sent you a PM zp4ja
