Should I be concerned about lead residue stuck inside of cases after wet tumbling my brass?
The .45 colt cases I'm prepping have come out perfectly clean. Those cases are new once fired by me. The bullets were lead round nose from Georgia Arms.
I have a bunch of .38 special cases that are reloads also from Georgia arms. The bullets that were fired in them by me were LWC and LSWC.
As you can see from the picture, some of the .38 special cases still have lead in them after tumbling. Is this an issue? Should I just load and shoot them, clean longer or toss them as it's not worth the trouble? Maybe chuck a brass brush in a drill and try to clean them that way. Or is this just a normal occurrence when loading lead projectiles?
