Just an update.

I tried out the Lyman media last night on some 300 Win mag casings. Poured about half of the jug into the old lapidary tumbler and tossed in around 80 cases. Set a timer for one hour to see where they would be. Came out just the way I like to see them...clean like factory brass, but not mirror polished.

You should never really get your cases to mirror like polish at any rate....if they are like chrome smooth, you take away some of the grip the case needs in the chamber.

The Lyman media is corn cob, but has a green cleaning agent in it....seems to work just great.

Cheers
