[QUOTE="Ga6570, post: 2109132, member: 108782"] I’ve been using the SS wet tumble method for 10 years. I’ve never had a problem with it. Tumbling in SS with water and dish soap and a little lemi-shine will not change the metalergy of the brass. The amount of liquid and other contents should fill the container about 95-97 percent of containers capacity. I have one of the early model thumblers tumblers. It has a very large capacity. Has been a great tool. i clean them each firing as I don’t like the idea of putting dirty cartridges in my chamber. But that’s but a personal preference. back to OPs original question, - if the person tumbling the brass “didn’t know it would do that” I’d say the process they are using is suspect, or amateur. But the brass itself is likely fine as far as the metal goes. I’d go ahead and size them and go on with the loading process. [/QUOTE]
