[QUOTE="bigedp51, post: 1256265, member: 28965"] I switched from vibratory tumbling with walnut media to wet tumbling with SS media several years ago and would not go back. If you over wet tumble you can peen the case mouth and cause yourself more work deburring the case mouth. Also many shooters don't like wet tumbling because it removes the carbon from inside the case neck. This carbon can be replaced by dipping the case neck in powdered graphite during sizing. Graphite is noting more than powdered carbon and the expander does a good job of re-coating the inside of the neck. And as a side note I buy a lot of once fired Lake City 5.56 brass and wet tumbling does a great job cleaning up the brass. Any time you have firearms that throw perfectly good brass away the cases will have dirt embedded in the brass. And the wet tumbling scrubs the cases and prevents scratched dies and brass. [/QUOTE]
