sorting mixed calibers of brass
Anyone found out an easy way to seperate mixed calibers of brass? Like when it's all jumbled together loose in the bottom of your range bag after picking it all up from your last 4 or 5 shooting sessions and finally getting around to sorting it? Other than the obvious sit down and sort through them one case at a time... That's the best way I can think of but who knows. Maybe someone out there is smarter than me.

For pistol calibers, there is a sorter:

Give it to the carpet crawlers to sort [:D] 0 -

I have that sorter, works great. You just need to pick the 9mm out of the .40 cases, and the 40's out of the .45 cases as they tend to get together when thrown into a bucket at the range.0 -
A 9mm stuck in a 40SW which is stuck in a 45. Been thinking of a wildcat round based on that, familiarity breeds foundness they say. 0 -
Half the fun of reloading is getting to know each case one at a time...[:)] 0 -

Since all cases need to be inspected, I do my sorting, inspection, and depriming as one operation prior to case cleaning. You're going to pick up each case any way to inspect, so you can certainly do your sorting then.
Now, if there were ONLY 9x19, .40S&W, and .45Auto cases to sort, the sieves might be of a lot more use.
Currently, I have to really inspect each .45Auto case to weed out the small primer cases.
Nothing a progressive hates more than a 9mm Mak case being in among the 9x19s, so case head inspection is always needed any way.0 -

for us, 9, 40, 45, and 223 is all that will need sorted. it is all we shoot from semi autos. it's easy to grab the brass from our bolt guns at the range. that stuff never even hits the ground. so the slots will work perfect for us when i get around to buying them.0
