[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3258919, member: 41653"] I reloaded for over 20 years without a tumbler. For the first few years I merely wiped the grit off the cases and went to it. Then I started washing the cases after depriming. Just hot water and a squirt of detergent, or laundry soap is better - fewer suds, in a container. Shake, soak, repeat. Rinse, then out in the sun to dry. The only reason I use a dry tumbler now is that I got one in a bulk purchase a few years ago. What I'm saying, the long way around, is that shiney brass is the least important part of reloading. Clean is important, shiney is not. Spend that money on a good scale, preferably a balance beam type, like a 5-0-2, or a 5-0-5. They can be found used for $30-50. [/QUOTE]
