[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1149218, member: 313"] I guess I'm all alone on this one because I rarely clean my brass unless I'm bored. It's not like my cases are rolling around in the dirt. :) I take a case from the chamber and place it back in the plastic box. It's just about as clean as when I chambered it. Normally, I use 0000 steel wool on the outside of the neck and use a proper fitting brass brush, wrapped with some 0000 steel wool on the inside. That's it! When I'm bored, I'll put a load of brass in my STM wet/stainless pin tumbler and let it go for a few hours. I have to admit, freshly cleaned/polished brass does look nice but it sure doesn't shoot any better. [/QUOTE]
