rush1329 1 Posted October 7, 2014 Sounds like an odd request but bare with me... For my friends wedding, part of the groomsmens boutaineers will be involving spent shotshells. she wanted pink hulls with high brass that is steel or nickel, rather than brass colored. we can paint the hulls but silver paint does not look like chrome. i have been looking everywhere and can't find anything. i even went to cabelas and peeked in the box of any shotshell i thought might work. shot size is unimportant since the spent hull is what is needed. if anyone knows for sure of any nickel or steel high brass rounds i would be very appreciative.

raz-0 1,259 Posted October 7, 2014 Only pink shotgun shells I know of are the federal top gun target loads. They are not high brass. I have seen white high brass shells which you can probably hit up with vinyl dye to get a non flaky pink out of, but to the best of my recollection they are all brass colored, not some form of white metal. That being said, most of the brass looking case heads are really some form of alloy that is white and plated, so a dremel and some polishing compound might get you silver and shiny.

Parker 213 Posted October 7, 2014 How about red? (by RC Cartridges) Most shotshells bases are brass-washed steel, very few have a brass base today. Some you can remove the finish with some effort. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
302w 83 Posted October 8, 2014 I have low steel pink shotshells if you need a handful. Unfired, though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
