Just thought I would share my new tumbler.

With the 20% off coupon it was only $112.00
Just clean 6000 9mm in a hour, cleaned and separated. Now in the oven drying. That is 1 full 5 gallon pail.

That's one serious tumbler. How much were the SS pins?
I got the pins off ebay $81.50 for 10 lbs

It is small. Will only clean a 5 gallon pail of brass. but that is a lot of .22 LR.
I bought one used this past summer, but haven't ordered the pins yet. Still working on my dies. BTW it's the same way Miculek cleans his brass.
Do you think 5# of pins would work with 2.5 gals of brass? I've just started collecting brass and only have about 1gal of each right now.
thanks,

5 LBS pins with a 5 gallon pail of brass work's awesome. I have herd of some that don't use pins they say it works good. I have not tried it without pins.
I have cleaned lots of brass with mine with rhino bed liner in the drum, lemon shine dish soap

I so need one of those. I have a tumbler that can do 500 9mm at a time which when I got into reloading a few months ago seemed fine. Until tonight when my shooting friend and his brother dropped off two 55 gallon trash cans each half full of 9mm brass. I'll be busy at 500 per load in the tumbler for awhile.
I use a 12-14 yr old model just like it from HF. It's litterly cleaned tons of range lead and brass. If your processing large quanities, it can't be beat.
you guys must have huge reloading rooms to be ab.e to have a case cleaner that big
It is not a full size cement mixer. It is about 3'L X 3'H X 2'W. Use it outside by the garden hose for a few extras rinses. Cuts down your cleaning time by 10. I wish I bought it years ago.
Got Powder/Primers? You must shoot way too much to have used that much brass.
