Caution when cleaning tight neck chambering brass. Case mouths will peen over a bit. Check a reloaded round to be sure it is the proper diameter to chamber in your rifle. It will require sizing and chamfering inside and out. I loaded up 50 rounds as they came out of the tumbler, went to the range and couldn’t shoot one round. 6PPC Benchrest. They wouldn’t chamber.

I Love SS media. The results are better than anything else out there for cleaning brass.

HOWEVER…. there are some issues with pin length. These are SIZED 6BR brass that have been tumbled. The pins still log jam into the case mouth. I would like to see them much shorter.

SS media works great.

One should use cold water. Using hot water will result in discoloration of the brass. I use a 1/4 cup of Simple Green and a teaspoon of Lemishine, cold water to 1″ from the top of the drum.
