This is 9mm range brass, dirty, buggy and looking for a home. I used a universal deprimer first - just the way I do it. Tumbled in Frankfort tumbler with hot water, 1 tsp Strato Sheen, 1 tsp Lemi Shine, and 3 and 5/8 drops of Dawn :D. No pins used, no ceramic, no gravel etc. Easy-peasy, no sorting. Rinse & about an hour in dehydrator at 120 deg. I do blot with a towel before starting drying process.

 

Pic coming. Really having a bad night .......

 

Beer provided the solution.

I have an older "media tumbler" - how much "better" do these wet tumblers work in your guys experience/opinion?

MUCH better for black powder (and subs). 

 

I don't even tumble my smokeless brass for the most part (unless it's really dirty).

No dust to deal with, don't handle the brass as much.  Overall I think it helps reduce your lead exposure. I don't use pins and my brass come out shiny and clean.  As @Badlands Bob #61228 says "Shiny guns shooter faster."  If that's true then shiny brass shoot faster too! 🤣
