Thinking about trying it. Are they any good and what problems/issues have you experienced?
Websites promise better cleaning than traditional media (walnut/corn) and even inside the cases.

Update: Should have done it before starting this thread :banghead:
I did a forum search for ceramic tumbling media and found many previous threads on the topic: http://www.thehighroad.org/search.php?searchid=6972150
- It is a WET tumbling process that requires drying - no problem here in sunny California
- Good for removing tarnish/stain that walnut/corn media can't remove
- Cleans inside the cases better than walnut/corn (not that matters to me as long as it won't affect performance)
- Ceramic media is durable and don't require replacement like walnut/corn (although I heard some people cleaning walnut in water and reusing them after drying)
I normally clean my brass using walnut before sizing/depriming and polish with corn (if the shine is required) and hand prime cases. Maybe I can use ceramic to clean cases that don't come clean with walnut.
