[QUOTE="mnoland30, post: 2592364, member: 29323"] The story I read years ago was that a few cops found out the hard way not to use WD-40 on ammo. It worked great for cleaning guns, but the WD-40 can creep in and kill the primer. I cleaned my brass with WD-40 once and it worked really great. When I pulled the trigger on an elk that stopped for a second, all I got was a click. Dead primer. Unless the ammo is blue-green, I wouldn't bother cleaning it other than wiping it lightly. [/QUOTE]
