Tater... use an un-fired .22 cal case with no hammer dent on the end. Pull the bullet out with pliers, dump out the powder (not in the ash tray! :D ) and scrape the small amount of primer out of the crimped rim inside with a toothpick, watch, it may pop like a cap gun so hold away from face. Clean out case with a swab and you have a virgin barss with no dent.

would be best to spray a little wd40 in it and let it sit overnight ....

Unfortunately, the ones I'm getting tonight will have the dent in them already. The only .22 ammo I have is sub-sonic. I'll check but I think the shells on them are really short.

I've used those Tater and then took a dremel to grind / polish...
also helps to put a little taper on the open end so the spring coils will slide over easy  :-*

Ed here's one for your new 100 fpe build  :D
