Hard to find primers (self-inflicted)

I was grabbing a tray (100 primers) off a rather high shelf in my closet and the inside tray slid out of the sleeve and onto the floor. The closet floor is carpet and made it hard to find the primers. I was ready to go to sleep and just moving them to rearrange to make room for some new powder I just bought. There is always setbacks in life but 100 little bouncing small pistol primers on a somewhat thick carpet kinda :oops: :oops:

After 30 minutes I found 95, kinda of neat how they fall back into the tray slots so I knew how many were left. Got my flashlight out and found 3 more. Yes 98. I guess I wont be vacuming the closet anytime soon until I find the other 2. This will be one of those "learning experiences". Yes both fingers will be on opposite ends of the sleeve next time I grab one off the shelf.

Jack

Edit:corrected spelling the word inflicted.
