The temple Wat Pho is in Bangkok wherein lies the reclining Buddha. Alongside the back of the buddha are 108 bowls where you can drop a coin in each one, each bowl representing the 108 actions that helped the buddha become enlightened.

Wishing to recreate that experience, I sorted 6000 brass cases, dutifully dropping case each into their appropriate ammo box. I feel sublime.

Holy smoke, Bodhisattva. That’s impressive.

To the right, at the top are .380 and a Makarov case. At the bottom right are old or some oddball headstamps I didn't recognize. I can see how collecting headstamps could become its own obsessive hobby. Out of all those cases, only one piece of Starline brass (well there are about 25 pieces of Asym that are Starline).

That’s a great way to spend some time.

Doing a big batch of ‘06 for Garand with my buddy who has been scrounging, stealing, and saving brass for years. Lots of sorting.

Good action, reminding me of a quote: "If you can't find enlightenment where you're standing, where can you wander in search of it?" I would suppose that sitting in front of bags of brass would qualify despite not standing. :-)
