ebay has 10 bullets for about $15 plus shipping. anyone have any experience with them? Capacity. Thanks for the tip in another thread about drilling to increase sniff

Could you post a link or pictures? You could probably get some answers if we knew which ones you were asking about.

forgot you could post links here http://www.ebay.com/itm/200585606288?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&\\_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 the actual bottle as illustrated looks a bit small??

Looks like ones I’ve had before. If so the bottom “chamber” is made of glass as it looks in the pic. Could be a good candidate for enhancement- as I recall the hits aren’t huge, typical I guess.

The vial holds about 1g, but you can buy 2g vials for <$1. I have quite a few of those that I’ve taken a drill to with great benefit. Now I have different hit sizes to accommodate mood and snuff varieties. A 7/16 bit will give you a great shot. Check the “big hit bullet” thread for more examples.

I prefer the metal ones because I tend to drop them on occasion and would be afraid the glass or the plastic would break. I’ve had five of the metal ones and now only carry one. I don’t even use it as a bullet anymore. The way I use it now is I unscrew the bottom and tap some out on my palm for a pinch or on my thumb for the boxcar use. I’ve even drilled into the metal ones for bigger hits as well.

If you do put purchase those you can replace the bottom vial with a longer one incase it doesn’t hold enough for your daily use. Search dram vials on eBay or other sites.
