Here is the advertisement I had in mind. I suppose quite a couple of
readers
will be interested: unfortunately, I am not connected to the firm :-)
Shotgun News May 10th, 1995, page 90:
"7.62x39 primed cases, send us your empty brass or steel 7.62x39
primed cases
& we will deprime, full length resize & reprime them
using new Berdan
primers. WE DO NOT DRILL out old primers & replace them with
boxer primers.
Doing so causes high chamber pressures. What we do is remove old
Berdan
primers using newly developed automated equipment, resize &
then reprime
your cases with high quality imported German Berdan primers of
the proper
size. You receive your cases back ready to load, using your
powder & bullets.
We pay return shipping to lower 48 states, $ 63. per 1000, 1000
minimum
order. Please no muddy, rusted or corroded cases. Please include
payment
with your cases, check or M.O., no sales tax required:
SWEET HOME CARTRIDGE COMPANY
546 Strawberry Hill
Sweet Home, OR 97386
9-5 Pacific Time, 503-367-8120
We buy once fired 7.62x39 Berdan brass cases."
