How many .223 cases in a gallon?

[Stevo]

KY is not an approved release agent.

Yeah, but does it work as case lube?

If you take out dirt and spent powder , hardly 4000 - 4200

.223 at an average of 95.28 gr/ea = 73.5 cases per pound
13.6 pounds = 1000 cases
Just weigh the bucket and use the above formula

Within an acre !

My PMC, LC 07, and FC cases go about 72/pound

Well No one is right until he counts them. Let us know Stevo

 

[Stevo]

The only way there's going to be an actual count is by counting up the empty primer and bullet boxes after the reloading is done!

Then we can find out how many loaded .223 fit in a 5 gallon pail.

I hope you are not single stage press loading them!

 

[Stevo]

I hope you are not single stage press loading them!

Nope, using a Lee Loader!

Just kidding.

Nah, foreign workers end up costing way too much.

Probably cheaper to hire some laid off CAW members from out east. Though, lack of productivity and absenteeism would most likely make that a losing proposition.

We should have bought more bullets.

I suggest bringing over some Greek union members instead.
