[QUOTE="UnSafe, post: 1348990, member: 100"] Rode up to OKC this morning and stopped in to H&H to browse. Saw baggies of small diameter brass rod/ wire sections, about 1/16" dia. and maybe 7/16" long for $14.xx/lb, and 2lb were needed for a typical sized rotating tumbler. The guy at the reloading counter explained that when used with a tumbler (As opposed to a vibrating cleaner) add water, dish soap and cream of tartar (for the pH), it would clean brass like new in about 1-2 hr. He showed me deprimed brass that had been cleaned via the system and it was literally perfect. I see a downside- The mess. Once done, I'd have to seperate the cases from brass media, then rinse and dry before storing. I'm pretty lazy with brass- I tumble pistol cases in corn cob media without depriming, but do deprime rifle brass (Without resizing) before cleaning. So, to those that have used the brass wire, is it worth it to you and why? [/QUOTE]
