Why not just pick up fired cases and sell the primed stuff?

bgjohn is right. Sounds like eBay time! I understand there are some who actually reload those things. I would call them a bit off for doing so as .22s cost about a cent, but then I'm a swager and live in a really big glass house..... 8)

Hello :D

Just swag them as normal, when the rim is being ironed out the priming mixture will go pop and that is it, problem taken care of. There is not enough mixture to do any harm to you, the tooling, or the cases, just ware eye and hearing protection, it will sound like a loud cap gun. But in all reality I would sell on e-bay.

You can always go visit Donna and put them in a pot with a heavy lid and put them in her oven, and pop them like popcorn :roll:

Well If you use Donna's oven just put the oven on self clean.You will get the primers popped and annealed at the same time :roll:

No on the serious side you should anneal the cases especially the federal cases.Feds are a little hard I find. I seem to push the rimes out on them.

I like the Winchester cases or Remington I don't anneal those.
I dont like to anneal the little rinfire cases they get to soft.Even at 2900 fps they seem to come appart when I get them to soft.
I like using the rimfire mag cases for the 70 gr.

Hello all, :D

You all remember that, do you. Guess I’ll never live it down, popping primers in the pot. You guys are all heart. :wink:
