So what is a good number of .223 shells to put in the tumbler at one time? I just bought one of the HF tumblers listed in another thread that states it has a 5lb capacity. I figured I had about 1 1/2 pounds of walnut media and about 1 1/2 pounds of brass (guesstimate. It ended up being 121 casings).
From another thread I picked up some NuFinish car polish and added about 3 ounces of that to the media.
It ran with only the media for about 2 1/2 hours and another hour after I added the polish.
The results aren't what I expected. Should I run the next batch longer in the polish? Should I put fewer casings in?
This was the first run so I'm sure I F'd something up. Or at least could have done better.
