A CAPitol idea

[Bunk]

I poached this from the Majormusket web site.
Personally I would have worn a face shield and gloves because this is kind of sketchy, but to each his own.
This may not solve the problem but it may get you back to be able to practice and save real caps for hunting or competition

Actually, that 22 case is a lot stronger than a percussion cap so it should be less likely to have flying shrapnel. I would cut the case with a good pair of diagonal cutters instead of those snips, though.

sorry i meant cutting up the .22 case not using it I may try this out just to see what happens.
Bnk.

That could keep a lot of percussion guns out of the safe and put them into the woods.

What a waste of 22's, the cost of 22's here in NY 350 rounds $75 and up 500 rounds $159 and up, it's not cost effective.

Last time I bought .22 amo…Walmart…5000 rnds for $170.00. They were selling the 500 rnd bricks for $17.00. I haven’t worked my way through that purchase yet.

Well, I have better uses for my 22 ammo, but if it keeps you shooting.........

You might be able to use power loads for a ram set in similar fashion.

yesterday I sacrificed one ,22lr just to see. It is a easy as it looked and fit the nipple on my GRR perfectly
My thought is at hunting season this would be better than leaving Old Sure shot in the safe and having to use
an unmentionable. Not for plinking but better this than nothing.
