    Media Tumbler

    I finally tried the media tumbler method for pc coating. It worked exceptionally well.

    Did the shake and bake for a while until I read a post from someone here about using your media tumbler.
    I also read a post by "gcsteve" about using containers with screw on lids. So I bought some Ziploc 2-cup containers with the screw on lids, put in about 100 ASBBs and 50 125grn 9mm boolits. Let them vibrate for 30 seconds an then flipped the container from top to bottom for an other 30 seconds.

    Dumped them on a 1/4" screen gave a shake and I could not be happier.
    I set them on end for baking ,, just because.

    Also, I'm using Smokes 'clear'. It covers well.

    Next you should try pre warming the boolits and then tumble in a butter bowl. Hot enough to still hold. I just set my tray of boolets on top of the oven while the last batch cooks.
