[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2472896, member: 8394"] It certainly is a balance. Corncob or walnut treated in a vibratory tumbler reigned for a long time. It always drove me nuts using it in small caliber cartridges as it would require tapping every piece of bras to make sure it was clear. Always left a little bit of residue and rarely got primer pockets. My venture into ultrasonic and brass left me always a bit underwhelmed. Have a pin wet tumble method that works, and is faster albeit a bit more labor intensive. Just ordered the linked stainless media and will give it a try on the 204 and 17. For the guys just rotary tumbling and chemical cleaners, on a scale of 1-muddy range brass how well does it work? My 204 brass is just grubby but not dirt covered bulk range brass dirty. All liquid cleaning of the 17 hornet would be nice. The brass is expensive and sensitive and my big fat fingers make it a pain to fiddle with. [/QUOTE]
