How to open a ribbed cartridge shell

Hello guys

 

I've asked BigBen how he opens the ribbed cartridge cases without breaking off the tabs. Here's how he does it:

Place the LOWER part of the cartridge shell, which has the sticker, into a vice. (Make sure the vice won't damage the shell. Some vices have a none-flat surface. Cover these with a piece of wood, plastic or cardboard)

Put pressure on the LOWER part of the shell until the shell is bend like in the picture.

Open shell by pushing one of the sides of the UPPER part of the shell.

If everything went OK, all the tabs are still intact.

 

 

Use this methode at your own risk. Neither BigBen nor I is responsible should anything go wrong.

 

Sincerely

 

Mathy
