I made a ring out of the used casing from a 223 because I mean what else do you do with them? anyway this is a super easy way to put those empty casings to work. have fun!

Supplies

what you'll need:

  • empty 223 rounds(or mostly any rifle round)
  • a hammer
  • two pliers
  • some pretty strong glue

Flatten Casing

take the hammer and-on some concrete or something- hammer the casings flat(except for the rim and head).

Bend Shell

bend the casing so that they both fit over each other and are even, and so that it will fit one of your fingers

Glue
