Tumbler Media?

[steveu]

I have been wet tumbling since the mid 90’s, started with steel shot then went to ceramic. The best additive I’ve used was cabelas tumble bright. When that disappeared I used other concoctions that were just ok. Then found Frankford Arsenal cleaner and it worked well, but not as good as the tumble bright did on BP cases. A friend recommended Shooter 2 cleaner and it works great, much better than the other alternatives for me. A little goes a long way, but you can’t use it for nickel plated cases.
Cheers,
Steve

Years ago when shooting competitively a fellow shooter was loading for himself, his wife, daughter and son. Thousands of rounds of brass a year. League shooting on three days a week, 600 yd. practice on Saturday afternoons. Matches every Sunday (50 rds. + sighters for league x 3 days x 4 shooters. 20 rds. + sighters for 600 yd. practice. 88 rounds per shooter every Sunday). He had a ton of brass to process and reload.

He had set up a cement mixer with a non metallic drum to tumble brass. He bought is corn cob media from the local feed store in 50 lb. burlap bags. Used a hardware cloth screen over a mortar mixing tub to separate media from brass. He spent all winter loading for the next season, all on a single stage press.

That's some serious dedication. And a lot of free time.
