Thread: have you tried tumbling brass in rice?

herd some talk about it . thought i'd try it in the shaker .it moves around, but not as good a corn cob or walnut . defiantly makes more noise .
i'm not a nut about super shiny brass . after running the shaker i tried the rock tumbler .after running the rice & brass in the rock tumbler for many hours one thing did happen . the inside of the brass was much cleaner than corncob or walnut has ever done . all it did for primer pockets was to plug up the holes . that was something i was expecting. ok so what! super clean brass really only is pleasing to the eye .takes time to get . if i really wanted shiny brass, using a LEE case holder and a drill motor a rag and brass polish gets it the shiniest it can get .
