[QUOTE="TracySes23, post: 2264110, member: 52763"] I essentially do the same as you, but I use a worn out bore brush chucked in a drill press spinning about 200 RPM. In & out 2 times & it's quite clean. I should add that I use only neck turned brass for my 22-250 tight necked chamber. this brass has only .002" to .003" total clearance in the neck portion of the chamber. This has a number of advantages for me. With the neck clearance that small, I've never had to resize the neck of my brass even after 16 reloads. I got this tip from a website that focuses on bench rest rifles only. When I read that many of these bench rest shooters were often getting 100 reloads or more before they needed to start with new brass again. I also always tumble my brass in an old Thumblers Tumbler w/dry corn cob media. At one time, I also used to use a mixture of Citric acid powder water which has some cleaning properties and will never damage brass. Spencer [/QUOTE]
