selling/trading reloads

[MA5177]

Is it legal to sell or trade some reloads you have collecting dust?

[Rob454]

Sure why wouldnt it be? I just think its illegal for you to make them and sell them without the right licenses

Not sure what kind of idiot would buy someones reloads.

We'll just call him "Lefty" when the time comes.

I wouldn't trust my own reloads, much less someone else's.

Great post, I guess you don't know much about reloading???

I think the law wants you to get a FFL-06 as an ammo manufacturer if you sell the reloads.

My reloads are 10 times better than factory ammo, and the other serious shooters I know are the same way. I would not have any hesitation shooting reloads from a trusted shooting buddy.

There are a lot of things that require licenses if you want to do it for money, from manufacturing ammo to cutting hair.

Thank you, that is the answer I was looking for.

If the reloads you collected were loaded by an 06 or 07 FFL, you can sell them. If not, don't do it!

Personally, I'll trust my reloads and the reloads of most people I know over factory bulk ammo any day.

Good advice, I found about 300 rounds of .223 that we loaded back in the
90's. I know its still good, I will just hang on to it in case I get a .223 again

Huge leap of faith required for it

How do you know the guy who loaded them didn't like to have a beer while he relaxed while he loaded? What if he likes to listen to death metal at insanely high volume and go off on long 'air guitar' riffs during his loading sessions? What if he had just worked all night and decided to load up a 'quick' hundred rounds before heading off to the range?
He decided he needed a third cup of coffee when he got up that morning?
Has a medical Marijuana card?
Does he have an insurance policy that will pay up when one of his reloads goes boom?

Then there are reloads that should only be used as parts ........ anybody remember Freakshow ? Now there was some crappy ammo . The only reason I didn't send it back was I am certain I would never see money or ammo again. I still have 500 rounds of 45 acp that I am going to have to take down and rebuild. The OAL is all over the place and vary by .005

Ummm... I know a little bit & I wouldn't shoot some stranger's reloads either. Nor will I offer somebody my own reloads to shoot in their gun.

My gun, my reloads, no problem.

It's a liability & trust issue.
