How did you disarm the .22... Just a heads up incase you're unaware, the powder in the rim(the part that acts as the firing pin) has enough punch to fire the bullet. If you've just emptied the powder alone then it's still potentially dangerous.

There's actually a .22 case, called a cap I think which is essentially a piece of lead about the size of a bb and the whole propulsion is from only what's contained in the rim, besides that the case has no extra powder in it.
