Thanks! I've heard people doing that and denting some of the case don't know if its true though.

I haven't had a problem with dented cases but I could see it happening if it was ran dry. With the proper amount of brass, water, and media the cases don't fall far enough to dent them. I have heard of people tumbling berdan primed cases that got pins stuck in the hole and chewed up the brass.

Shiny goodness! I've been pondering this and now I think I need to pull the trigger.

Opened up the rubber lining in the bucket and found quite a bit if rust so I sanded, primed, and painted today. Some of these tumblers aren't painted on the inside and will cause rusting. Here's the outcome.

Here's what I primed and painted it with. This painted is VERY indenticle to the outside paint.

Stainless steel media you can find it all sorts of places.
