Damp cartridges, will they dry out?

Hate to tell you this Bobby.....but it is not real brass....and there is no Father Christmas :wink:

No really, I never realised! That's why they can be picked up with a magnet is it?

I should have used one on all my brass empties from target shooting that we can sell for scrap!

Bobby .....darling....get one of your wife's Brillo pads and try scrubbing your cartridge in some hot or cold water and tell me what you find....?

Stop yanking my chain!

I was trying to suggest to Jonny that he shouldn't say that rust was forming on the brass - obviously the point was missed by some!

Just to be clear of course I know that the bottom of shell cases are not really made of brass but the sarcasm also went over your head.

Too much gin tonight me thinks!

Mart,

Take the rust off with very fine wet & dry paper to avoid it damaging the breech face.

I prefer Brasso for mine. It makes people think I've gone out and bought new cartridges rather than using up the ones I bought back in the 90's!!  :sarcastic:

This time I'm not joking!!

Was that sarcasm.....?

Make it better next time..!

And.....don't drink gin when trying to be sarcastic....it simply does not work.

You want to do what I did....and give up gin...I did weeks ago......just saying.

Hope you drink it with the wife and not alone :wink:

Peace and lots of kisses Bobby :wink:

We were just joking with Robert.

I think that that fact has been well established already but you could send Johnny English a PM if you like to be sure!

Try telling that to Charles at Just Cartridges or David Bontoft at Hull !   They'd probably agree with you and put their prices up!
