This may be new or old news. Black Hills Ammunition is now using an anaerobic, weak glue for sealing primers and bullets. (For Them) a machine squirts a small amount of a weak anaerobic glue around the primer (your choice of color), and a colorless version of the same glue around the base of the bullet.

The material wicks its way into the primer/case joint or bullet/case joint. Everything deep in the joint immediately takes a set. That portion still exposed to air is simply wiped off.

Quite a slick way to go (I think).

Does anyone know who makes this system? It would be just perfect for Safari ammunition.

Please do not tell me that I do not need to seal ammunition. I am simply wondering if anyone has a thought as to whom might make this system.

Lock-Tite (under new ownership), and 3M come to mind, but I do not really know..

Many thanks for your help.

I use this on the ammo I want to seal ammo.

I do believe hunting and home defense ammo SHOULD be sealed. Especially when its going to be in humid climate.

Okay, N51 and Bob, please tell us if the sealing stuff you use smells like women's fingernail polish?

Yep,
Makron and Goerge & Roy's are both nail polish. If you thin them with "Nail Polish Thinner", they stretch a lot further, and penetrate better.

I am hoping to find a lead on the anaerobic glue system; similar to the Locktite 290 and Black Max that I have used on rifles.

Thanks for everyone's help.
