Pa	A friend of mine just sent me an email stating that he just opened an old brick of Remington Thunderbolt .22 shells that have so much lead corrosion on them that they are jamming. He asked me about solvents/cleaners....Any suggestions other than emery clothing each one?... Thanks-Doug

I wouldn't hesitate to run them through a case polisher with dry media. Not having one of those, some steel wool and a bit of hand work could clean them up. My first choice would be Jim's suggestion. Toss 'em. They're cheap stuff anyway. > Jim Legg <
