  1. This year I've ran a whole brick of spmp's. I have a sd40 with the apex trigger kit. The light striker spring wouldn't set off the mag primers. Stock spring was reinstalled and now it runs fine. In my cz75 I used them too without issue with whatever springs came in the cgw kit.
  2. Joined just for this. :D Here's my wet tumble experience. After an hour I remove the brass from the solution and rinse. Now I have a few gallons of contaminated rinse water and contaminated original tumble water. I dumped it in the yard opposite of my garden... Ehh. I don't love the leaded water in my yard. Leave brass out in the sun to dry for 4 hours. I can only do this for about 6 months of the year, otherwise it's going in my hobby oven. Brass is left with tons of calcium residue. Some cases have trapped water behind the primer, so they're left to dry for another day. Next day, brass is dry and ready to load... Kind of. I have to deprime and scrape calcium. This adds a ton of time too. oooor, remove dirty fired brass straight from my range bag, into the dry tumbler, remove 45 minutes later and put it directly into the case feeder tubes. The light walnut dust is good straight wall lube. It's not mirror polished, but it's clean. Run the press and put a couple hundred rounds in the bin an hour later. So my options are 2 days and toxic waste in my yard plus an entire extra deprime and clean cycle, or from range pickup to loaded ammo in 2 hours total. Im sold on dry tumbling by no small margin!
