<George Capriola>Shotgun Shell Cleaning
Hello Group,
I've got a big box full of shotgun shell hulls that I picked up in my Sporting Clays days. They've been sitting for a couple years, collecting dust and spider webs.
I've re-focused attention on shotgun sports, and thought it might be nice to crank out some ammo on the ole MEC some night. My wife won't like it if I run the shells through the washing machine (you know how it is...), and I'm trying to think of something I can soak them in, rinse them out, and air dry before reloading. Any suggestions here would be greatly appreciated.
Regards, George.

p dog shooterWell she mind if you put them in something first like a old pillow case.. That about the only way I clean them.

<George Capriola>That's a great idea, but I don't think I could get away with it. My wife's German & Irish, which means a hair-trigger temper with conviction! See doesn't appreciate the beauty of clean shotgun shells as much as you and I do...
