[QUOTE="utvolsfan77, post: 5288718, member: 14847"] I did the same thing last year and switched over to the SS pins in the small Frankford Arsenal wet tumbler. It saves a ton of time compared to the older way of cleaning brass. In fact, I started cleaning so much brass, I also bought the Frankford Arsenal dryer as well, and the two have really sped up the entire process for me. Just make sure you [B]deprime[/B] before cleaning - no sense cleaning something you're going to throw away (spent primers). Also, [B]ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS[/B] check your brass when rinsing to make sure no pins were left inside the case or flash hole. Those pins could cause some serious damage to a barrel and maybe even to the person using the firearm. By the way, [B]SAVE YOURSELF SOME MONEY[/B]!!! Instead of using Lemishine, go to the canning section at Walmart, Rural King or TSC and buy a bottle of citric acid in powder form. It's basically the same thing but a whole lot cheaper to get the same results. I use one tablespoon of Dawn Ultra dishwashing liquid and one tablespoon of the citric acid to each container of water. My brass comes out looking like new. I'll run it through the dryer for a couple hours, then let it sit overnight and start loading it the next day. [/QUOTE]
