Most of this thread reads like a Josh Sugarman idyl ! It seems the "antis" have taken "control of the debate" in a very big way ! The topic involves no exotic or nefarious, of even sensitive, devices/technology, yet some are insisting the PD needs must be involved ! No doubt they'll also be the first decry further enacted government intrusion in firearms/accessories they've invited with their foolish demands !
IOW, put your "big boy britches" on, man up, learn how to deal with the occasional kerfluffle you'll encounter in a safe and environmentally sound way.

Seriously, .22 RF are soft lead heeled bullets and can be easily pulled. Often with only your fingers. Capture the powder and put it on the grass; or other house plants you're fond of, its good fertilizer ! If you feel so inclined, the easiest way to inert the priming compound is to hit it with any POL compound, say WD-40, gasoline, kerosene, etc. BTW, same goes for CF rounds/primers.
Modern ammunition/components are extremely reliable and stabile. As owners/possessors/users its our responsibility to deal with them safely; not ship the responsibility off to the local PD. This road leads to further controls and eventual confiscation. Why ? You're sending the PTB a very clear message you aren't capable of safely handling this (very safe) level of technology ! >MW
