I change my previous statement about time. 30 minutes works great for pistol brass that was previously ran through a vibratory. It took 2 hours to get my 5.56 range brass clean.

4-6 hours with 2 changes of water/soap (even after soaking in a bucket of soap) for black cartridge brass.

Great video Steve. Do you remember the name of that timer? I need a smaller timer.

Steve,
What size pins do you use? I have seen a few sizes out there.

I saw a picture and they had smaller pins that were so small a pair of them fit in a primer hole and clogged it, had to be popped out by hand or a depriming die. I could see a large/medium size also getting logged in a primer hole if it was a tight fit..

Never once I have I had a pin get stuck or otherwise lodge in a case or primer hole. 20,000+ cases wet tumbled.

Chips? What are those??

I assume he's referring to the Southern Shine media. As far as I know they're only on Facebook:

Five pounds shipped for $23.50, so it's pretty cheap.

I've done about that many and had probably a couple hundred pins stick in cases, necks or pockets. Not a lot, but it's still some. I just worry one will stick, I won't notice, and I shoot the thing!

Is there a particular caliber that causes your pins to stick? Or all of them?

What size pins do you use?

I've tumbled a lot of calibers, and I've never had a stuck pin. Sometime soon here I'll be doing some 6.5 Carcano and 6.5 Jap, and the 6.5 calibers might have the best chance of a stuck 0.255" pin. We'll see.
