They ?look? dirty, but load & shoot fine - won 4 natl championships. Every year or 2 I tumble them in walnut media with dawn for a few hours, but hate cleaning the media from the flash holes.

GJ,

Per your earlier thread, I too hated cleaning my Maynard brass flash holes of crushed walnut media residue. Remedy was to switch to stainless steel media!

Media, some Dawn and water in the tumbler yields bright and clean brass, INSIDE AND OUT, with no obstructions to the touch holes. Best of all the media NEVER wears out - it will literally last a lifetime.

Hope this helps!
