[QUOTE="Goofycat, post: 671892, member: 6504"] I see no reason why it would improve accuracy, but it helps to get any gunk off the cases which in turn helps to keep the dies from getting gunked up from any remaining film of case lube material, water spotting, scratches, etc. I dunno....I just like to reload clean cases. It takes little work and I am fairly anal anyway. BTW, I just read in the August issue of GUNS magazine that substituting some crushed walnut hulls made by "Lizard Litter" (in pet stores) is cheaper than what is offered by the retail gun industry, and since it is finer, it doesn't tend to get stuck in the primer pockets, etc. Another trick is to save the used softener sheets from your closhtes dryer, cut them in 1" strips, then toss them into the tumbler. Tip #3: add a capful of Nu-Finish Car Polish (not the wax) to each new load of walnut polishing media after each long polishing session to "help slick up the case with no downside." [/QUOTE]
