Its Brass so you can definitely recycle..... I don't know where but any metal recycling place should take them..... If not I know many ranges recycle the empty brass for a bit of extra cash....

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Problem with empty 22 brass is a lot of the scrap dealers are mighty afraid to deal with it because in the past the odd dud round got mixed into the bucket of supposed empties and when it went to get melted it got a bit too exciting for them to be, well, understanding.
Maybe it is changing with the copper glut on the market but 10 and 15 yrs ago that was the case.
