Abstract: A case orientation device may include an input chute coupled to a discharge chute via a funnel. The input chute may have a width dimension which may be greater than the length dimension of the ammunition case. The discharge chute may have a width dimension which may be less than the less than the length dimension of the case. The funnel may transition from the width dimension of the input chute to the width dimension of the discharge chute. A splitter may be disposed in the funnel, and the splitter may have a tipping surface which may be oriented towards the input chute. A case may enter the input chute in a horizontal orientation, may be rotated out of the horizontal orientation via contact with the tipping surface, and may be forced into a vertical orientation to enter the discharge chute in the vertical orientation.
