Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I still do. Been doing it for many many years. I prefer it over steel pins. I'd like to buy a bit more, as my supply has dwindled over the years. Who do you folks get it from? Thanks --Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yul Lose Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Which kind do you like? The balls or the pyramids? I’ve got some of both I could send you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex M Rugers #6621 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I have always got mine from Dave Maurer.(hope that is spelled right). Have no idea how to contact him. Original Lumpy Grits might know. But I haven't bought any in years. What I have now will surely be a lifetime supply for me. Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickel City Dude Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I stopped using any media in my wet tumbler, I just use Brass Juice and a little lemashine in the water and I am good to go and don't have to separate the media from the brass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey YL: The ceramic media I bought years ago is cylindrical. So, whatever you think works best. Thanks --Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tequila Shooter Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I’m into the Strat-O-Sheen method, no media at all, YMMV but what’ve got to loose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody Shootem, SASS # 24816 Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 I used to use the cylindrical ceramic media, but it kept getting stuck in my .44-40 brass (due to the bottleneck). I spent a lot of time picking it out with hemostats. Ceramic was fine for straight-walled cases, though. I switched to the stainless pins, which are a little shorter and don't get stuck in the .44-40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
