    About to deprime my brass from the Brawl, then throw it in the wet tumbler.
    Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.

    Cleaned up some molds and drained my casting pot. Its not putting out enough heat.

    Dry tumbled 100 pieces of 45 ACP, cleaned up a bit, and watched some NASCAR.

    Apparently, I did not clean my hands well enough after processing brass yesterday. I got popped by tsa today.

    Heck, I even dry tumble my finished ammo for 15-30 minutes. Of course the prepped cases get lubed before the actual reloading and I want to remove the lube before running the ammo through my guns.

    It's absolutely not necessary to go to this much trouble, but I generally put an equal value on form AND function.

    RE: Dust... I don't seem to get much dust from my walnut media. I was using corn, but no matter how often I changed the dryer sheets, it seemed pretty dusty. I pop a new dryer sheet cut in 1/4's into the media after each ~10 hours of runtime. I also dump in a bit of Nu Finish car polish in at the same time. My ammo is very shiny when I'm done with it!
    Your shiny stuff is now the "bling" in my reloading room. I got it all re-sized today! Then I realized I only have less than 300 small rifle primers left...also have some heavier HPBT-match but only a few 52gr. I'm not shooting the heavier stuff anymore, anyone need 156ea 69gr HPBT Match and 59ea 80gr HPBT Match in trade for some 52gr?

    No, but do you have any spare pistol primers? I do have a lot of cases of wolf small rifle primers I'm never going to be able to use I could trade you for... I have nothing set up for pistol yet.
