When picking up brass at the range (.45) I also pick up unused rounds. Also I get some rounds from reloading that don't fit the case gauge. In either case I disassemble the round to recover the brass and bullet for reuse.
As long as the primer isn't dimpled (indicating it was ejected due to misfire) I also collect the unused primer and save them in an old primer box.
Is it ok to use these primers in new reloaded rounds? Yes, they cost less than 3 cents a piece, but it nice to load in groups of 100.
Also has anyone ever come up short in a box of 100 primers? Today, I got 99 primers and I'm sure I didn't lose one anywhere.
