[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2683810, member: 15054"] Hey guys. I would like those that use the STAINLESS pins to take a digital picture of the case after pin tumbling. ALSO take a case and put beside the Pin tumbled case in the pic that has NEVER been pin tumbled only walnut or corn cob or other dry media vibrated. MOBOOST has noticed harder to resize after pin tumbling and Vibrates afterwards. Now I do not notice any of that but I use Homemade copper pins. could be the solution used in pin tumbling is sometimes too strong or left too long I DO NOT KNOW! But I would like you guys to take pics. You do not need to post them just leave them full size and look at them really close and tell what you find. Any Peening going on with the pins???? Now I had a 30-06 that did not shoot boat tails worth a hoot.. This gun had less than 100 rounds through it it had a recessed stepped crown and looked fine with the naked eye. I then took a Digital pic and looked at it on the computer screen ..Not a small phone screen.( I do not have a phone like that) The crown looked like it was chipped all the way around but almost microscopic in size. I took some compounds and a marble and slicked it up looked really smooth when I was finished and had a slight taper now also. Tightened up those boat tail groups and made the flat base groups a bit tighter also. I still get that cold bore first shot of the day flier though that blows the group.. I think that is an issue with me needing to do some bedding work :) [/QUOTE]
