Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking, Tsquare. I know someone who reloads, so I'll see if he has any use for the components.

Suppose I could pull the bullet carefully, dump the powder and fire the primer to make myself a crap load of dummy rounds. I don't play around with wadcutters of any kind so there would be very little chance of it being mistaken for a live round, or vise versa.

The more I think about it, the less comfortable I am firing these cartridges even in a modern, beefy, 357 revolver. I think I'll just play it safe and dispose of them or re-purpose them. Definately hanging onto the cases if I ever do get into reloading. I love nickel cases...
