I just got done cleaning 300 .44 and .41 Magnum cases using the Frankfort Arsenal wet tumbler. Fve pounds of stainless steel pins, 4 capfuls of their brass cleaner and some hot water and 90 minutes later, all the Unique, H110 and primer residue was history.

I use a universal depriming die on all my cases before tumbling.

I then use a media separator basket to flush the pins away from the cases, put both the pins and clean brass on cookie sheets and put them in the over at 175-200 degrees for an hour or so, stirring the pins once.

They come out looking pretty much new. I use carbide dies and just size and expand them, and call it a day.

Now all I have to do is prime and reload.

I started off with a wet tumbler, and have had no desire to use dry media.

Ninety minutes to tumble them, and it seems like another 20 minutes to separate the pins from the cases and clean everything up.

Then 45 minutes drying them and I’m done. Somewhat of a hassle overall, but it is kinda nice having new-looking cartridges when I load up a batch.
