[QUOTE="greenejc, post: 1641153, member: 60453"] I like the way he does it . But I don't have a concrete mixer, and I wish I could get someone to sponsor me to shoot thousands of rounds. I really like Jerry. He's a good guy and very down to earth. By the way, like Quigley and the Colts revolver, I never said i didn't know how to use one. Just said I didn't need one. When I was much younger and much poorer I used a rock polishing tumbler and walnut and some chemicals that my older brother made up in a lab at his university to do this. I just don't need to use one of the liquid media tumblers to clean my brass. I don't have the facilities to shoot the thousands of rounds that would justify it, and I'm cheap. I do use on occasion a water bath to clean the dirt from range brass, and a toaster oven to dry it. Like I said, I started doing this stuff in 1966 or so. And then I spent 20 years in the Infantry teaching marksmanship with everything they had (and still have). While I was doing that, I continued to reload and hit the POF range at least three times a month. I have fired and reloaded many thousands of both pistol and rifle rounds from .223 Rem up through 50-90 Sharps. I actually do know my stuff. Which is why I agree with you as to what this gentleman's problem is. He's tumbling his brass and not trimming it back to the trim-to length. But thanks for the vote of confidence. [/QUOTE]
