Rifle/Shotgun Shell Key Chain
Calling all shooting enthusiasts. Have you ever wondered what to do with your spent rifle ammunition and shotgun shells? Well, here is a fun and easy way to make key chains out of your used ammo.
Materials
For the rifle key chain you will need:
Empty rifle cartridge. (I used a .22-250)
Drill
5/64 drill bit
Vise (optional)
For the shotgun key chain you will need:
Empty shotgun shell (I used a 12 Gauge)
Utility or X-acto knife
Drill
5/64 drill bit
Vise (optional)
Making the Rifle Key Chain
Clamp your casing in the vise. Then you take your drill and drill bit and drill halfway through the casing, drill through only the first layer of metal. Then you have to insert it on to your key ring
Making the Shotgun Key Chain
Clamp the shotgun shell into your vise and use your knife to cut off all the plastic and leave only the metal piece.
Drilling the Shotgun Shell
Drill at approx. 45 degree angle near the of the shell. The top is the non lip side. Insert on to key ring.
