Professionally Deburred — Smooth, Safe Edges Ready for Wire, Hooks or Chain

Each upcycled 22LR casing has been meticulously cleaned, tumbled, and precision-drilled with a 1.5mm (1/16 inch) hole near the center — a specialized process that requires dedicated equipment, since 22LR brass isn’t easy to drill cleanly. We professionally deburr every shell to ensure the edges are smooth and safe for handling. Their light, delicate size is part of the appeal — subtle and understated rather than big or bold, perfect for jewelry designers who want a refined look. Headstamps and manufacturers will vary, and because these are authentic fired casings, expect to see beautiful, natural wear and authentic spent rim strikes. Made specifically for jewelry designers and crafters. Free shipping on every order.

FAQs

Is this a real casing, or something reproduced? 100% genuine, once-fired 22LR rimfire brass — not a cast or molded replica.

Is the hole pre-drilled, or do I need to drill it myself? Pre-drilled — each shell has a clean 1.5mm (1/16") hole professionally drilled and deburred, ready to string or wire right out of the package.

Is the hole perfectly centered? Very close, but not laser-precise — each hole is placed near the center by hand, so expect slight natural variation piece to piece.

Are the drilled edges sharp? No — every hole is professionally deburred, so the edges are smooth and safe to handle.

Will headstamps and markings match across the whole order? No — headstamps and manufacturer vary since these are genuine once-fired casings sourced from mixed lots, not new manufacture.

When will my order ship? Most orders ship within 1-2 business days.
