mscott Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 fill e'm with used priners and leave e'm around the range-then watch your buddies! How about repackaging a few and see if once fired primers would sell on Funbroker. There are obviously some silly buyers on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin c Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 (edited) I keep one of each size around, used to flip a full tray over so that all the little beasties are anvil up. That tray then gets flipped over onto an RCBS tray to get me 100 primers all lined up and easy to load into a p/u tube (I have too much fun doing this to get an RF100 eta: The rest get recycled.

Aircooled6racer Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Hello: I take them to the range and let my son shoot them against the berm with his 22. Cheaper than clays or maybe not Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n2ipsc Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Can't speak to the plastic bits, but... Tear a panel off the cardboard bit, grab your Sharpie, and they make a nice little loading data card - throw it in the ziploc bag...or ammo can...or whatever...

sargenv Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I use them to measure steel shot counts when I load steel for hunting. Large steel shot bridges badly in my sizemaster and it is easier to count it out this way than trying to run it through the press or have to weigh each payload. Shot size up to #4 is good in small pistol, #bb is good in the Large primer trays.. of course this only works for Winchesters since the other manufacturers hold their primers sideways.

Jeff686 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Ideas: Hide them in the X's trunk? Use them as faux tree bark around the shrubbery? Bring me a shrubbery! Randomly place one on a coworker's desk each and every morning? Use a butane mini-torch and make some 3-d art? Cut them up and glue into little mini plastic airsoft pepper poppers? Take one to the bowling alley to fix that wobbly table to keep your drunk team mates from spilling beer on your new bowling shoes? Guess where I got that idea!

slavex Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 well here's an opportunity for one of the manufacturers to "go green" and offer a recycling service for them like printer cartridges. we mail 'em back and they re-use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmaass Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 One of the guys I shot with had a wife who was an elementary school teacher, and she wanted as many as she could get. She cleaned them throroghly, and then had her students use them in art projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
