So, I have been casting and loading for just a couple of months now. I live in a rural area so I mail order quite a bit of stuff. I notuce Midway, Cabelas and Amazon all fill their boxes with the little inflato packing. I had been just popping it and trashing it. However, today I was dividing up some boolits and thinking about about how many pennies baggies cost when I saw sime of these spillung out of my trashcan. "lightbulb!" ( and I dont mean one of those new fangled cfl bulbs either). Turns out that if you slice the top off with your picket knife they will hold 100-150 boolits and you can use the piece you sliced off as a tie. I am sure I am not the first to do this but thought I would share. Any ideas of other uses for them?

Great idea!!! They are already recycled once; now again. Are we GREEN enough yet?

Jim, I think that is actually one of the little pictures on the side of things NOT to do ;)

You could always leave them inflate and keep them in your survival preparedness supplies. Water..check, food..check, ammo..check, emergency air..check!:kidding:
