accu9 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Does anybody have experience tumbling pistol rounds (loaded with coated bullets) in corn media post reloading? I'm worried the coating will be damaged... I would like to try this as it's very time consuming cleaning the One Shot off by hand after a 2 hr session on my 650 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayBar Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I've tumbled plated bullets in corn for an hour- not an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauza45 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I put the loaded rounds on a towel and spray with alcohol and rub down. takes about 5 min to clean 1,000 rounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Currently Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I put the loaded rounds on a towel and spray with alcohol and rub down. takes about 5 min to clean 1,000 rounds You just saved me 150 bucks! Thanks! Have a wet tumbler and considering a vibrating one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcracco Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Wet tumble brass so you start with bright, shiny parts. Verrrry quick spray of One Shot. Brass processes very smoothly and you cannot detect lube on finished rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
