Just a heads up. yesterday I was tumbling some brass (06) in stainless pins. I have been using them for about a year. I was going through my usually process. Tumble, Rinse in clean water, Tumble all the brass in an old Coffee can with holes in the bottom to let the pins fall out. Let the brass dry. After drying when I was putting the cases into loading blocks I noticed 1 pin on the table. MMMMM. I wondered could there be more? I started inverting the cases and hitting the case mouth on the table. I didn't have any more pins fall out till 1 case had about 20 pins in it. Just a heads up about what can happen.
A question from the more experienced. What would be the affect if a pin was left in a case and it was loaded, and fired? Kevin
