    Just a quick question...im currently making my tumbler but wondered how much SS pins I will need ....

    I'm only going to have 100 or so 243 or 308 or 223 (you get my drift) at any one time, so how much media will I need to get. Also it seems the good ol US of A is the cheapest place to get it (media) from even inc delivery or could one of you guys shed so light on a more local source...Thanks

    and very good results btw guys...

    A couple of pounds (1Kg) will do you - I got some from the US around 5-6 years ago and still going strong.

    You might try these - half the price of the Lyman stuff on Amazon.

    i watch your video and did the same but didnt like all the froth lol...
    so i checked which dishwasher tablet was best and lidl came out tops.
    i boil the water then add tablet and citric acid and agitate bucket......agitate a few times as if you dont it can pop lid off and you lose all those precious pins....
    after 1 hour i checked and hardly any froth but cases came out clean...they are cleaner that what the pic illustrates .
