Be advised that there is a fellow using the screen name M4Scout who is scamming shooter looking for brass on at least three sites that I know of. He nailed me on some .257 Robt. and .35 Whelen brass for $45.00. He's posted what he has for sale on: http://www.reloadersnest.com/ and  http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=114&t=84 4808 and 
  http://www.accurateshooter.com/forum/index.php?topic=3759723 .0. So far those are the only sites he's scammed on that I know of but I'm trying to see if there are more.
Here's the rat's mug shot. http://florida.arrests.org/Arrests/John_Abene_2358939/
His home address is on the rap sheet and it is to the letter the address I sent my money order to.
I didn't get hurt real bad as $45 won't send me to the poor house but some people on other sites spend over $100 and like me got nothing. 
I've bought lots of components, bullet and brass off the Internet and this is the first time I've been scammed.
Just a heads up in case you see his ad on some other site not mentioned.
