[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2958977, member: 15054"] Copper pins of different lengths and diameters in a hot water solution with about 1/16 teaspoon lemishing to a few drops of dawn or palmolive for 2 quarts of water. Tumble for 1 hour to 2 hours drain and rinse about 5 times and lay out on a towel to dry. I used to use a vibratory with media and gave up. Recently I read a guy on another forum got the red colored media in the handy see through jug. said it is better than naything he ever used,, results were almost comparable to pin tumbling. He got it at a garage sale for cheap and said other wise he would have never tried it. I will try it one day. I have used glass beads that cost me 65 bucks for a large bag. Cases felt like silk when i was done tumbling. Stainless pins i have are long and heavy not the typical short ones.. the long ones rough up my cases make bullet seating inconsistent as the neck ID is roughed up.. can't see it so much but you can sure feel it. I heard the small pins if used too long will do the same. You will probably never notice it on a 1 MOA deal you will on a 1/2 MOA deal and it will drive you crazy [/QUOTE]
