In the sale section at the bottom of the forum there is a ad for brass, a 5 gallon bucket of 223 mixed brass is $123.45.
They have brass in 55 gallon barrels. They are out of Colorado, Maybe military brass?
I think used brass should be worth half of what new brass cost, but used brass varies from caliber to caliber, time of year and region to region.
Before I got into reloading I picked up all of the brass I could scavenge at the gravel pits that people let there after they were done shooting and I bought some off the local hunting forum at a decent price.
223 ammo is really inexpensive so I find a ton of it, Never looked to see what just the new brass sells for, Next trip to Cabelas I'll check it out.
My uneducated guess would be around 10 cents a piece.

If you have any less popular calibers, they'll go for more.
35 Rem was going for crazy money a while back - just for spent brass.

Try to find 32 Remington brass.
I got hell of a buy on a Remington 141 in 32 Remington, I already had a Remington 141 in 35 Remington.
As popular as 223 is and as cheap as it is there is a ton of brass out there.
