Recycling old brass

What do you guys do with your used-up brass? I've got a big bag of brass I've shot the life out of and was wondering if I should just throw it away or if there was any value in recycling it somehow?

Look in the Yellow Pages under "Scrap" or "Recycling".

Brass gotta' be worth sumpthin'.

brass can go anywhere between 50c to $1.00 a pound depending on the market. It changes almost daily. I got lucky one time and had over 1000 pounds of it from some old pumps and brass lathe shavings and hit it on a dollar a pound day.

Most shell casings are prime brass. Our club has a drum for scrap and they sell it to the recycler about once a year. Usually at least a couple hundred dollars worth.
