Once fired 45 brass is going for around $8.00 per hundred when you can find it. So with unknowing how many times that it has been reloaded and the shape it is in I'ld say around $5.00-$7.00 per hundred.

Who knows nowdays? Due to the current political climate (to put it politely), ammo and especially reloading components are very hard to find. According to most of the shooting/reloading sites, small rifle primers are impossible to find nation-wide---just one example. Cabela's, Sportsmans Warehouse, etc, in Billings, Mt. have been out for months, brass is hit and miss. They had some calibers but by no means a regular stock.
