I was just wondering if anyone here both tumbles and uses an ultrasonic cleaner on their brass. If this is something that you do, why do you do it?
Seems like too much effort to have to get the water out of the cases.
I find cleaning primer pockets a waste of time these days-and dont worry about it. Ive always able to flush seat primers, with a dirty primer pocket. The carbon in the primer pocket has zero effect on how the round fires, or how accurate it shoots. Whatever that doesnt come out of the primer pocket during tumbling - stays in there for me.
For $83 you cant beat it

Sure you can.

The reason to go with this one over the Harbor Freight model is that you can set it to 30 minute cycles with heat. That's worth the extra $2.
I cant speak for the reloading aspect, but having an ultra sonic cleaner on your bench for cleaning is awesome! Chevellenut got me hooked on them with the purple simple green and water for the cleaning solution. I've dropped gun parts and entire pistols into the cleaner and they come out looking like brand new.
