    It isnt an upgrade. Its just different. It cuts down on the dust is all. It is much more time intensive.

    Yup, there's actually some downside beyond having to dry it out.

    I did some testing on it and found that in precision rifle ammo, Velocity ES/SD was greater with Wet/SS than with dry tumbling. I'm pretty sure it comes down to leaving the carbon in the neck with dry tumbling, whereas wet will remove it to some extent creating less consistent Friction on the bullet. But that part is jut my theory. However testing numerous times the velocity thing is real.
