Man, Years ago, I used to tumble everytimeI reload. But I hate going thru and getting out the corncob or walnut media. And after doing it, it only stays shiney for a few months, and gets a duel finish, I think its oil from the media.
But anyway sounds like your doing everything right.
BC, What's your method now?
I'm still tumbling, and it can be a pain. Cleaning of the brass after tumbling is like adding another step to an already involved process.
