The stuff in Misc are cases. They're just bullet casings that can be used as components for ammo crafting. Which requires a reloading bench and some amount of repair skill.

Some boxes of ammo are bugged and you have to place them in a container and then take them back out again to open them up and actually get the ammo out. If you do that and still don't get ammo then you are looking at a component for making ammo (usually has no weight and no value).

Oh as for the Reloading Bench, the items on the left are the recipes and the items on the right are the ingredients. Don't move the cursor or selector over the items on the right though. It's also bugged and can sometimes render the bench unusable until you close and reopen it. Just stay on the left hand side.

Dropping them to the ground works fine too. It appears the script only runs when you pick it up in some manner, vs retrieving via a vendor.

Same problem with Caravan cards too, from what I understand.

Yeah that was freaking me out for a bit when I first started using them. I even have a post somewhere on here asking if they were supposed to vanish when I tried to get them back out of a container. I thought they were just disappearing! lol

So I need to toss them on the ground and pick them up again? I've been wondering how to get all those cards in my inventory into my deck...

If everything on the left side is grey, you probably don't meet the repair requirement. Or you don't have the components. The right side tells you either what is needed (if making ammo) or what you get if (if breaking ammo down). The right side also tells you what amount of repair skill you need.

The right side tells you what you need if it's a build or what you get if it's a breakdown.

A container could be anything from a mailbox to an oven or anything you can open and put stuff into.
