I'm not a really high volume loader. I learned to hand deprime with a hand tool rather than run my dirty brass through my expensive dies and risking damage was not the best of ideas. Then I run the brass through a tumbler cleaner with just soap and water using dish soap. The brass comes out really clean and shiny and the primer packets, while not supper clean, are cleaner than not depriming first. I plan my cleaning on sunny days to dry in the Sun. A person could probably improve on the dish soap. I will wait for responses and possibly modify my cleaning habits.

Frankford Arsenal has a great stand alone tool for decaping both rifle and pistol brass without cleaning the brass first or using your press. The instructions arn't very good for pistol brass, I had to do a U Tube to figure out how to deprime pistol cases. Worth the money and saves time. I can sit in a chair on my warm deck and deprime away.

My problem is that I couldn't click on the link to follow the thread after I switched to Windows 10. Ill check the info above to see if that solves the problem. Thanks
