Going brice on bulk 556 LC brass?

Paid 225 shipped for around 22/2300 LC range brass last month. Bought about 3 gallons of very mixed range brass for $75 a couple weeks ago. Most of my local ranges sell range brass in that 500/$50 range.
 
Pulled the trigger on all same year/HS LC 556 for 88 per k. Didn't know it was same HS till I got it and wish I would have gotten more. All the LC I've ever ran into has been mixed year.
 
I am not sure if any of this brass is still out there , but if you can find it I would recommend going that route . I have never enjoyed messing with crimps so this was a no brainer for me . Virgin LC brass with no crimp is a treat . This is an older article but I have seen virgin LC brass with headstamp as late as 17 .
