The BS 'shortage' and gouging made me do a random google search out of curiosity... and it looks possible, and relatively easy.

Has anyone actually tried this? I might, just out of total curiosity and amusement. I'll have to start saving my brass, lol :rolleyes:
 
you can also get a part time job at a fast food place and work a few hours a week. use that money to buy ammo. you will get more ammo for the same time investment.

LOL, I'd have to agree! Find a job at a gun store where you get an employee discount and you'd be doing twice as good!
 
OMG!! I watched the video on that site, wow! that looks more tedious then learning to knit! Holy crap there is cheap then there is a make work project for the insane! Actually we should make a competition how many .22lr can you make in a day, record is currently 53! Having said all that it is a bit neat to watch and to know it is possible to make, but I cant see this as cost effective. Even if you were sitting down watching TV I still cannot see that being worth the time. How many could someone do an hour? I'd say one every 30 seconds, so 120 an hour. Pay yourself 10 bucks an hour and it is still more expensive to reload this. But again, still great to know for a survival situation (maybe). anyways interesting at least.
 
I did a search here and nothing, that's why I posted... Agreed that your physical time vs cost is just not there,

I'm just impressed that someone actually went to the effort to figure out how to do this.

I can't imagine reloading a brick of 500... hell, even just a box of 50 would probably be too much work.
 
No idea as to accuracy. The bang was still not proof.
How long for the priming compound to dry?
No idea as to fail to fire, fail to eject . . .
Almost as pointless as the DIY criminal cutting the corners off $20 bills and gluing them onto a $1 bill. The loonie foiled that and this idea sounds a little loonie too.

^ not to derail the topic... But what would cutting the corner off a 20 and gluing to a 1 accomplish?

back when we had $1 bills if someone wasnt paying attention they could think that it was a $20. both were green and if you hand someone a pile they might not notice. now its not possible at all for obvious reasons.
 
So the cost of making a fake $20 bill, was $21 plus the cost of glue and time?
Somehow does not sound very profitable Eh!
