We must have read the same magazine back in the day,,,
I got the instructions from I believe Popular Mechanics.

Melt about 1/4 to 3/8 inch of paraffin in a tin pie plate,,,
Pull the bullet from a .22 cartridge and empty the powder from it,,,
Use the case like a cookie cutter and you had "parlor" ammunition for your revolver.
OR: take that same wax, . . . primer up your .9mm, .38, .357, .41, .44, .45 or whatever you got cases, . . . push em in the wax, . . . "Voila", . . . instant practice rounds that can be shot in the basement or the garage.

Back in the late 60's / early 70's lots of guys were using these and a 1/4 inch plate mirror to hone their Wyatt Earp fast draw skills.

May God bless,
Dwight
