I'm aware of the pickling effect but I like the speed of this process. In the areas I shoot I doubt I'll be able to recover all the bass every times for the loss of one or two reloads to matter. With the wet tumbling there’s much less chance of dealing with air borne lead. This is a fast safe approach.
PS. Fine tuning (solution mix & number of cases) has reduce the tumble to 20-30 min.
fyi, venegar and lemon juice will eat brass.. this is why its cleaning it.. best to just use walnut, dried corn, and rice, so your not removing any brass.. what you are doing is called a pickeling, so you may notice brass lasting maybe 2 less reloads. i try to only pickel the really, really bad/dirty ones. like the 10 year old blackened brass. the fresh off of the range, should dry tuble them. neet tubler though.. check out mine made from a palm sander.
