I went over to a construction site that my former Boss had a crew at
I needed to borrow a rotary hammer drill & bit and they had one they were not using
He told me to head over to the job site and get it and just drop it off at the shop when I was done
As I want to drill a hole through concrete for a 4" PVC pipe
While I was there I saw one of the crews there had used a bunch of the 27 cal blanks to drive nails into the concrete to hold steel track in place
I ask what they were going to do with all the strips of spent blanks strips ?
I was told one of them was just sweeping them up to throw away
So I had him sweep them into a pile and I scooped up just over 4 - 5 galloon buckets of the strips
Oh there was also some trash mixed in
I was told there would probably be more Thursday or Friday and they would save them for me
I may just take the brass and scrap it
Unless I could use the blank brass to swage bullets
Anyone use the 27 cal blank brass ( red power ) to form bullets ?
Thanks
John
