Any good uses of empty primer boxes?


Recommended Posts

I've heard of shotshell reloaders using them for counting shot or something. Other than that, I got nothing.

Every time I load up a bunch of primer tubes and dump the boxes in the recycle bin, I imagine the people at the plant going "holy crap somebody's building an arsenal, call the cops!" :surprise: (I live in California).

Believe it or not there is an existing thread on this. It's amazing what has been discussed on here over time.

I think the funniest idea was a shooters young son saying they could be used as ice cube trays!

lol

There was some guy that was making an automatic case lubing device for use with Dillon case feeders. The base for his device was a federal primer tray turned upside down.

I turn them into fire more often than not.

Put Loctite in one of the pockets and dip your screws into it while putting your guns (or whatever) back together. Loctite won't set up until in the presence of metal. It saves a lot of mess and is also very handy!

I have a concrete floored basement area that gets wet in heavy rains.

Stuff I don't want to get damp is up on Federal primer trays.

But I load way more than what I can use that way so the rest goes to recycling.
