Open1215 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Hello all. I can't seem to find my ultrasonic cleaner sooo I'm wondering if anyone has tumbled a barrel/comp in stainless steel pins? I don't think it would damage anything but I've had bad luck lately... any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ltdmstr Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I don't know what your setup looks like, but if there's any chance the ss pins will contact the muzzle, then I definitely wouldn't do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beastly Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 (edited) I tumbled a slightly rusted but not pitted Dillon 223 die. I received it in this condition back when they were hard to come by and I wasn't willing to send it back to Dillon. It came out slightly darker but beautiful!

Open1215 Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Ya. I had a feeling I probably shouldn't try it. It's a 1 piece trubor so I was thinking it would clean the comp and everything really well. I ended up suckling a soft bore brush in a drill and that cleaned the chamber really well. I also cleaned and ordered new extractor springs so this should clear up the extraction issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
