[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Disposing of damaged ammo

Posted: 5/22/2006 5:27:32 PM EDT

Well, I was doing reloading drills with my Walther PPK/S and dropped a loaded mag (evidently, I need more practice). When I picked up the mag I noticed that the Hydra-shok on top had been damaged. One side of the hollowpoint had been pushed in a fair amount. It landed on one of the "corners" and flattened out. I didn't know that could happen.

I'm assuming that this round is now unsafe to fire. So, since I've never disposed of ammo in any other way, how do I safely dispose of it.

Man up and shoot it!

Barring that, you'd have to dissassemble the round with one of those goofy bullet pullers.

I hear that the old powder is good for your garden. Not joking.

Throw it in the ditch like I do.
