Finally got a brass tumbler
After a few times through the pipe my brass was looking really bad. bought a tumbler and now they're all pretty again... im sure my reloading dies love me now. Also got a Lee Pro Auto Disk powder measurer today! that thing saves LOTS of time!

Three thumbs up to clean brass.
What kind of tumbler did you get? What kind of media do you use?
I use a RCBS Sidewinder. I will clean the brass first with liquid and after resizing (Usually just neck resize) then trimming and just before I prime will use corn cob media for the final polish.
Some people are going to ultrasonic to clean their brass and I hope someone will chime in on their expierence with it.
Straight shootin' to ya, GRIZZ
