Post by: London808 on May 07, 2016, 09:54:41 AM
Ever had one of those days.....

Just droped an ammo can with 2500 lose 22lr in it  >:( spent about an hour picking up rounds from the floor. Now all the rounds are sealed in vacuum seal bags 100 per bag. This will not happen again.

Do you own a shop vac? Next time clean our the shop vac and vacuum them up. Probably wouldn't take more than 20minutes including cleaning the shop vac

That is genius!

Much better than the alternative of picking them up one by one.

You could have also just swept them up into a dustpan. Then you can sit down and pick out the rounds out of the dustpan.

Just want to point out im not a tard, I used a piece of cardboard to scoop them up. The hour took included the time to seal them up......

Didn't drop a ammo can but dropped a 15 lb. bowling ball that clipped my toe at home.  It's amazing the type of words that come out naturally.

I have over 12,000 rds of 22 LR in ammo cans, but they are all in the factory packaging.  I never did drop an ammo can, but I did drop an assorted screw, nut and bolt assortment.  Try picking that up and putting the right sizes back where they belonged.  Still not as bad as what happened to a friend of mine.  Since he did not have a LUA in his garage, he would pee in a plastic quart bottle instead of going into the house.  Well he dropped a half full bottle while putting the cap back on over his tools and work bench.  He yelled "OH SH-T" , when he should have yelled, "OH PEE."  LOL.
