Hello

I demand what kind of media you are using in tumblers? Not the commercial media !
I use the RCBS sidetumbler with grindet corn.

I use ground walnut shells from the pet store, rice is also a possibility.

I do use the commercial corncob media. I found if you tumble after every sizing, you do not need Walnut. If I do i have some commercial Walnut media.

Right now,I'm using corn cob pet bedding from Wal-Mart,but I'll prolly never use it again.It shines fine,but is a pain in the ass in small caliber brass.Not too big for 30cal+,but I tumbled some 223 and had to dig it out of almost every case.I'm sticking with reloading size grain from now on.

The walnut for me is the best. Rice,which I used raw and cooked than dried, for over a month comes apart and generates too much dust or powder if you will. Roll Eyesroger
