These shells are 100% inert, meaning they contain no gunpowder, live primers, or explosives. However, because they are empty shells with small parts, they must be kept away from small children due to choking hazards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDo I need to clean or polish them before use?\u003c\/b\u003e It depends on your project! These are authentic, fired casings, so they may have minor carbon dust or range dirt. We hand-inspect them to remove damaged hulls, but they are shipped unwashed. A quick rinse with warm soapy water is recommended if you are casting them in clear resin or wearing them as jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"12\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWill the silver bases rust if I use them outside?\u003c\/b\u003e Yes, if left exposed to the elements, the metallic bases can eventually rust or tarnish. If you are creating a rustic wreath or outdoor flag, we highly recommend applying a clear protective acrylic sealant over the bases to preserve their finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat is the exact size of these 12-gauge hulls?\u003c\/b\u003e These standard 12-gauge shells measure approximately \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13\" data-index-in-node=\"101\"\u003e0.8 inches\u003c\/b\u003e in diameter.
