What to do with .22 lr brass?
I sweep up everything from where I shoot...at the public rental range it's common courtesy, at the private club, it's a rule. So, I've accumulated quite a bit of it.


What should I do with it?

JT there was a thread about this not too long ago. Seeing as how you're on this board as much as I am I'm sure you posted in there.

I don't remember it...I'll look and ask a mod to delete should I find something.

Scrap brass is going for a little over a dollar a pound. It doesnt take much 22lr to get a pound. Save it in a 5 gallon bucket and then take that to the scrap yard. Justin I accumulated a little present for when you start reloading send me a pm.

I'm curious how one makes .223 brass out of a .22 shell.

I've seen people use them as jackets for swagged bullets, but I wanna learn how to make my own brass!

Maybe that's what it was...I don't have anything that uses .223/5.56 so I don't know. I know it can be melted down and recycled for something, just don't know what.
