Walnut media & about 1" of autosol.
After buying two ultra sonic cleaners which failed after 1/2 hour I’ve decided to buy a tumbler instead,
I’ll be cleaning 17 hornet and 223
What do you use with your tumbler besides ss pins
Walnut media & about 1" of autosol.
Pistol & Rifle Shooting in the Highlands with Strathpeffer Rifle & Pistol Club. <StrathRPC at yahoo.com> or google it.
No longer Pumpin Oil but still Passin Gas!
if its a vibrating tumbler then above is as good as anything else....
if its a wet tumbler.....stainless steel pins , warm water and citric acid and a blob of washing up liquid.........you can also use 1/2 of lidl dishwasher tablet instead of washing up liquid
another tip i was told...after wet tumbling empty dirty water then tumble again in clean warm water for 15 min

Thanks for the replies
How much citric acid would you recommend
I just bought a tumbler off a guy on here. I've just used the media what came with it for some .357 cases and it was fine. However I put my 3 stainless Alfa Westlake cylinders in for a half hour and didn't seem to make any difference to powder residue but they were more shiny on the outside.
