I run them under hot water and peel them off the shaft.

Since I shoot FMJ's, just scrape them off with a utility knife.

I use a tea pot. Heat them up with steam and they peal right off.

I'll take a razor knife and make three strip cuts cutting off the feathers.Then I'll take a cigarette light and run that over the remaining pieces of wrap.The little bit of heat will soften and make it easy to peel off.Then take Goof Off to clean the remaing residue off and then clean again with denatured alcohol.I find it quick and easy!

Propane torch--- being careful to work small sections in quick passes.  Melts the adhesive, but does not heat up the carbon.  I know it sounds crazy, but I've yet to have a problem doing them this way.
