I understand in Russia when 22 RF ammo was short or too expensive at some stage that some individuals reloaded spent 22 RF cases using a paste made from match heads to 'reline' the case heads, then a bit of powder probably black powder, capping off with a 22 cal BB or pellet and rotating the cartridge in the chamber to ensure an undented portion of the rim is presented to the firing pin.

Can't see why it wouldn't work, the Russkies may have to resort to this again if the current financials sanctions bite deep enough after their invasion of Ukraine.

Could be a way of reactivating cartridges for obsolete rimfires provided the owner has some spent cases or unfired ammo to start with i.e. don't through away spent rimfire cases!!!!

I thought about buying one but figured buying 20,000 rounds of 22lr on special was the better option.

You will regret that when the apocalypse comes and you run out of those 20,000 rounds. Oh why, didn't I hoard up all that RF brass and buy a RF reloading kit

Good find btw. Just need now 200,000 matches ...

lancaster we have .27 caliber blanks as well. Some just push a bullet into the rifling then load a .27 and fire. Fiddly.

the green load of the 6,8/11 is the right stuff to shoot the rare 7 mm Flobert http://old.municion.org/7lp/7mmFlobert.htm
you just load a 7 mm roundball into the barrel before.

do not know before this cartridge is available in the united states. there is a third tool blank caliber, the 6,3/10 rimfire cartridge, do you have this too?
