    Have a look at my reloading video series. I've got a clip on cleaning brass cases: https://youtu.be/GHjSt5HogGs

    If you want shiny on the inside then you'll need to look at either ultrasonic or wet media tumbling with pins .
    I use the latter and the insides come up lovely 😎

    Thanks for replies. I've watched the clip and the cases look much cleaner than mine. I think the ultrasonic cleaner? is what I will try next. Is the one shown a purpose made one for reloading?

    Thanks for that. I replied yesterday but for some reason post is not appearing. I've watched the video and your cases are much, much cleaner than mine. The ultrasonic? cleaner looks quicker and I think I might try that next. Is the one shown made specifically for case cleaning or a general purpose unit? The tumbler and pins look good to, if going that route wheres a good place to look for them?

    I've tried ultrasonic cleaning and although it works it's not as efficient (IMO) as the pin method. I would suggest save the money and put it into a wet tumbler.
    These can be brought new (such as from SPUD1967) or look out for a used rock polisher (free adds etc)
