I’m looking for the right way to clean my 223 brass. I want a better, faster, more efficient way of getting this stuff clean.
I’m reloading 223 for High Power matches and for practice.
This is what I’m doing now.
1) Take dirty brass and run it through non treated corn cob.
2) Lube brass with RCBS lube and pad or lube with One Shot and
then de prime and re size
3) Dump a hand full or two of brass into a big towel and rub brass to
wipe off lube.
4) Trim to length
5) Chamfer and debir
6) Take out primer crimp and clean pocket
7) Load
I have in the past run the brass through the tumbler after I wiped it down but then I had to pick media out of almost every primer pocket. I hated that .
Is it necessary to run the brass back through the tumbler again after its been sized?
Is rubbing the lube off with a towel OK? Will a little residual lube hurt any thing?
