    Stop using dry tumblers. I switched to stainless pins a couple years back. Still use the walnuts sometimes. The stainless tumbling makes things look like new, even the primer pockets. I used the paperclip method too.

    until i can justify the price and extra steps for wet tumbling, it's walnut media for me.

    Don't ever miss one of those SS pins in a case and then load and shoot it. It will scar the hell out of your rifling.
    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.
