Now and then my wife will buy a specialty grated cheese. It comes in a 1-qt plastic tub with a large snap lid. And it holds 200 45ACP casings for storage / sorting / stacking.
Besides being a brass scrounger at the range I "recycle" the cardboard ammo boxes other shooters throw out. Why buy plastic ammo boxes when these are free?
I prefer CCI 22 ammo in the cardboard boxes. But if you find discarded 100 round plastic packs 2 holders from the 50 round boxes drop right in.
I wanted a primer arm for a used turret press I picked up. Some 1/4" steel, cutoff wheel, and a drill press, and I made one. The sleeves I already had from another broken arm.
An old Dupont IMR 1# metal powder can now holds my Ed's Red solvent.
I thin Lee Liquid Alox with acetone and use it as a supplimental lube on any old cast bullets I buy. It'll dissolve the plastic bottle so it's in an old metal Dupont can also.
I put a HEPA filter in my shop vac for vacuuming up errant spent primers. No use spreading the lead throughout the house with a regular filter.
