I have read quite a few posts where people say that bullets don’t give enough snuff per hit. I just dumped one twist out of my bullet into a boxcar to see how much was being dispensed. It seems like quite a bit to me. So this is a small amount to veteran snuffers?

C

That’s a much bigger hit than any crappy plastic bullet that I ever tried using. :-c

X

I had a bullet that looked like that and it gave about 1/4 of that, maybe less, although the opening was smaller. I gave it away. I tried to like them, but always got poor results and they seemed like more trouble to operate than just taking a pinch.

M

Maybe he has teensy, tiny hands. Just a thought. Actually, I’ve got three kinds of bullets but none of them provide an amount even half that impressive.

S

No way a bullet gave that amount.

D

I have one similar to that, and while it doesn’t give quite that much, it still gives enough to roll some off the back of your hand. It’s the hardest bullet I have ever tried to rotate though.

N

Is that how much came out in in one dose or it that how much snuff fits into your bullet? No bullet I have gives even half that much in one dose, and if that’s how big the dose is how many doses can you get out of that bullet, 2 or 3? And you are aware that unscrewing the bottom and dumping the entire bullet into your hand doesn’t count as one dose.

_

That’s MY size dose. Can I ask where you got it?

W

I have the exactly same bullet (even in the same colour) and gives more or less 1/2 the quantity shown in these photos, @DICE can you tell what snuff were you using so I can make a test? Mine was bought in EBAY so no info of the maker…

D

This is one dose from one twist of the bullet. I bought five of these bullets on ebay for me and friends. All of them give the same amount. I will take more pictures of a poured out dose next to a penny for size comparison. Before I bought the bullets I was always reading on various forums that people didn’t like the amount of snuff that bullets gave, so me and my buddy were shocked when we actually dumped out one dose and saw how much it was. We were wondering if our bullets gave more than the usual bullets, or if we were just newbies thinking it was a lot. I guess for the people that actually think I just poured a bunch of snuff and am lying that it is one dose out of the bullet, maybe I will have to make a video when I have time. The snuff that is in my bullet is 50/50 mix of Viking Dark and SD Apricot. I also have a technique I use with the bullet, not sure if it makes a big difference. I tap the bottom of the bullet on my thumb knuckle or something hard so that all the snuff gets packed to the bottom, then I rotate the body of the bullet over while holding the knob then tap it again a few times with some force on my thumb knuckle so it packs the cup well.

@DICE Let mw know who the seller was on ebay. I would love to have one of these little puppies. If they aren’t too expensive, i’ll fill them with WP and let people try them out. This almost looks like the same dispensing hole that his has: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-x-Snuff-Dispenser-Snorter-Bullet-Rocket-Shape-3-piece-durable-aluminum-Nasal-/250939632899?pt=LH\\_DefaultDomain\\_2&var=&hash=item3a6d2aed03

D

That is the seller that I bought some from. I recommend that seller, had fast shipping and no issues with the bullets. I did pay for 2 from another seller on ebay and was only sent 1, had no communication and eventually had to get refunded through ebay. All the bullets from the two different sellers were the same, and give the above pictured amounts of snuff per dose. One of my friends that I gave a bullet to just called me and is uploading some youtube videos for the members that called me out.

S

Here are a couple videos I made to show the dose size for that bullet, I have the exact model. http://youtu.be/CQAgVhftIIQ http://youtu.be/oAjf8KKOhtM

D

Thanks for posting the videos bro! Video #2 is a good example of the size once you pour into boxcar.

D

I bought a 5 bullet pack off of eBay a while ago and mine are the same size as shown above.I also purchased a bullet called “the blizzard 2” that one has an even bigger nose hole and has an avenue bigger hit of snuff than these. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blizzard-2-Blizzard-2-Snuff-Dispenser-Snuff-Bullet-4-Colours-FREE-UK-POSTAGE-/160833593971?pt=UK\\_Collectables\\_Tobacciana\\_Smoking\\_LE&var=&hash=item25726de273 I purchased a chrome one but I didn’t see it on eBay anymore but these are the same thing.

D

@smokinjoescbr Your second video cracked me the hell up with the ‘woman hands’ comments. Hahahahaha

S

If I fill the bullet all the way to the threads its has enough for about 8 doses or so. If I take a full dose of fubar up each side first thing in the morning it definitely gets the party started!!!

D

I was curious to tap out dose after dose from a full bullet until it’s empty to see how many doses it holds. Is that what you did brother?

S

I was thinking how many times a day I use it before its empty, it seems to be about 4 or 5. So I figured about 8 doses give or take.

D

It looks like he sold 2 of the 2x packs, and 2 of the 4x packs yesterday. My 2x order isn’t showing up yet, so it could be a bit more than that. It’s nice when you get a little snuffhouse rush.

D

So, I ordered 2 late night on the 9th and the bullets arrived today. I can’t count the 9th because of how late I placed the order, so that makes a whopping 3 days to get here from Canada. That guys is a pretty awesome seller. I haven’t tried them yet, but they look way more consistently made than the other alum bullet. Thanks again @DICE !

B

Wow I think of all the money I wasted on bullets when I used them. I no long use bullets . Snuffhouse.org boxes are so easy to fill and empty. And I get to pinch or tap out. All I need. Bullets unscrew bottom ,carefully fill replace bottom. turn over load turn again use.run out without knowing. I am not anti bullet ,I just find them more trouble and slow.

_

Arrrg. I just got mine, and tried one. Same measly little blast as all the others. You know the kind-where you do three on each side and then think you taste it. No camera, but HDT came out about a third of the blast of the pic that got me to buy them. Rats. Add 'em to the others… :-w

D

@ad_noseum I don’t understand how. The bowl on mine is WAY bigger than my original one. Yeah, it’s not like a 1/4 teaspoon and firing it up there, but it seems a lot better to me than the old one I have.

_

I’m quitting bullets. Well, the snuff bullets, not my 40’s or 45’s. I’d rather pry open an old Gawith 10-grammer and refill it. Nuts.

D

@ad_noseum I am sorry to hear that! I don’t understand how it could give a smaller amount if it is the exact ones that I got. The only thing I can think of is technique. I tap the bottom of my bullet down on my thumb knuckle or on a table so that all the snuff gets packed down to the bottom. Then when I rotate it over and hit it on the top, it SLAMS the snuff down into the bowl and really packs it in there. I am finding that the more I use snuff the less and less I am using my bullet. I am preferring to use a pill holder type metal capsule and I just unscrew the lid then tap some out into a boxcar.

D

I just got ordered and received 2 similar bullets after checking out this thread early last week. I am definitely impressed with the amount of snuff delivered per turn. When I was checking out the chamber from the bottom, I noticed a some kind of metal shaving around the mechanism inside that I wiggled out- wouldn’t want that snuffed up my nose. I use the back of the hand method and I find these easier to use and more convenient than scooping out some every time. I don’t really have a proper snuffbox yet.

D

I just noticed another one around the smaller bore towards the top. It could be just on the ones I got, but I doubt it. they probably weren’t sanded after they were bored.

D

I used a small jewelers screwdriver to clean out any left over shavings from the machining. I also washed it very well to remove any machining oils etc before loading it with snuff.

@DICE and @Disco_Snuff: OK, I reamed out the loading cup, and I got some funk out. Now it dispenses more, perhaps maybe twice as much as a typical bullet. Thanks for the advice, and the health warning. It’s still a small shot for me, but I usually load up pretty heavy. I’ll keep 'em in my truck, as back-ups. I’m thinking, at this point, that I’ll drift out the pivot pin, disassemble it and enlarge the cup. You guys notice that these things pivot differently? One is smooth and easy, the other not so much? Maybe some Vasoline on the O ring, since it’ll be apart (did he just say Vasoline on the O ring?) Thanks again, brothers. Although not perfect (what the hell IS these days) it’s better than the others I have.

Here’s a dose from a bullet I ordered last week, after I took a drill to it. I can never leave well-enough alone, and this time it paid off nicely. I got the idea from an old post of Rodrick’s, where he described his technique for “pimping out” his acrylic bullets. I figured the same could be done for aluminum, just exchange hand and knife with drill and bit.

S

thanks for this thread as I was wondering the same thing.

A

I went ahead and did some drill work on an acrylic bullet, and had some amazing results. This is what it gives me tapped out into a boxcar. Why didn’t I do this sooner?
