I know nobody would reload .22LR brass, but is the brass recyclable? Can it be melted down and formed into new brass? If so, is anyone doing it?
Brass is selling pretty high for scrap, so saving up enough might pay off, but the only real USE for it besides recycling is you can buy special tools to use it for making your own jacketed bullet jackets.
Those that don't accept it usually experienced rounds cooking off on them in the past when processing the brass.trust me they won't give a rat's keaster about your spent shells.
When they got used cartridge cases, according to my recycler friend, they would ALWAYS "fire and pop" them, with a torch flame. They'd invariably cook off a live round or 2. It was considered SOP.Those that don't accept it usually experienced rounds cooking off on them in the past when processing the brass.
