[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3067981, member: 15054"] Maybe "peen" is not the word but my cases got rougher when using stainless pins. I am not the only one that has noticed this issue so it does in fact exist. I do not overload my tumbler either. A bit under 1/2 full of cases and fill full with water. I have slowed the speed also and checked cases at 45 minutes tumble time and i just abandoned the stainless pins. My pins are not extremely small though like some I have seen. But people using the smaller pins have seen issues. If stainless works for you and your shooting that is great I am just mentioning what I observed with my cases.
