Winchester Super-X 218 Bee TRADE!!!!
I have 100 rounds of Winchester Super-X 218 Bee Factory new ammo. They are 46 grain HP rounds. I am in the process of building a 17 Ackley Bee and I am in need of spent brass. Would like to trade these rounds for brass. I don't own a 218 Bee so I can't just go shoot these to make the brass. I know most on this forum reload but I thought maybe I'd get lucky and find someone that doesn't. Since I have to put a price on the ammo I will go with $110. If this is not allowed here I apologize. I searched through the guidelines and did not see anything about ammo.

Why not pull the bullets
With no die in press, put round in shell holder. Run up through press, using wire stripper grab bullet just above case neck. Lower round holding bullet and letting stripper rest on press. Will pull bullets doing very little damage to them. Friend shared this and only way I pull bullets now. For rounds too short to go through press put a short pipe nipple over ram. Pulled hundreds of military surplus this way.

If they were reloaded 218 Bee rounds I would pull them. However I think it's kinda foolish to pull factory loaded ammo just to get the brass. There has to be someone somewhere that would be willing to do the trade I have presented.

With bee brass available and 32-20, I would peddle the ammo and buy the brass new.

It's nothing special. A couple of years ago I purchased a bunch of what I believe to be AAA Walnut blanks at an auction. Last year I sent two sets to High Plains to have a couple Contender Carbine Stocks made. Turn around time was around 5 months if I recall. One set was for my cousin the other for me. I just finished up the stock and now it's time to figure out what carbine I'm going to go with. A month ago I was at a local auction and picked up a forming die set and die set for the 17 Ackley Bee. So BINGO!!!!! It was answered. I'm going to have a 17 Ackley Bee made for the Contender. Seems like I'll be stuck going with an MGM Barrel unless anyone has a better route I can take.

I think I have some new Bee brass. Probably have some 17 Ack Bee formed. DO NOT pull those bullets. I would like this to go with my Win Model 43 in 218 Bee. I finally got all three of the Model 43's! Thanks, Tom Mc

I am in no way going to pull this ammo. Let me know what you have Tom once you have a chance to look.
