[QUOTE="JeffRaines, post: 1869510, member: 107623"] Speaking of stainless tumbling - the cheap rock tumbler set up from harbor freight is awesome for the price. Buy a pound of pins, some dawn and lemishine and you’re good to go! Don’t waste time with One Shot. I had a can of the stuff that came with my reloading beginner set I used because I didn’t know any better. The imperial wax is about 1000000000000000000x better. I just figured sometimes your die would gall your brass and it was the price of doing business. Scraping or polishing it out of the die sucked. No more of that nonsense! Don’t waste time with cheap electronic scales. You can get better results with a balance beam(and faster than cheap scales too). Buy yourself a comparator set and learn to use it. Also a chronograph should be a requirement before you start reloading. Velocity is related to pressure in a big way. You can’t know where you’re at pressure-wise if you have no idea what your velocity is. [/QUOTE]
