Pulling apart rounds
Knarley Bob:
I have some BPCR rounds that I intend on pulling apart. Going to recast the lead, and reload them. I don't remember what exactly they are, so......
Any way, is there any good way to get the compressed BP out of the cases besides taking them to the range? I don't plan on trying to reuse the powder.
Niederlander:
Depending on how many we're talking about, it probably would be much easier to shoot them empty. Trigger time is always valuable.
Silver Creek Slim:
I have used a small flat-head screwdriver in the past.

I second the flat blade screwdriver, maybe with the edges nicked off so you don't gouge the insides of the cases.
If you shoot them off at the range, it will be more fun, but also more of a chore to recover the lead for recasting.
Knarley Bob:
I think I'm gonna pull the lead, THEN take the brass to the range, and dispose of the powder using the primer. Then clean the gun. The powder, has been compressed and is like cement. Of course, some trigger time won't be a bad idea either. We'll have to see.
Thanks guys..............
