I never had any of the small FART pins get stuck, just a real pain keeping track of them. They seem light enough that the surface tension wants to float them out everywhere. The larger Stilly pins are a LOT easier to deal with. I'm able to separate the pins easily with a RCBS rotary separator.

The FA pins separate out fine for me, but heavier ones would logically come out easier and be less prone to taking flight.
Is there any noticeable difference in cleaning speed/ability between the different pins? Heavier ones would logically scrub faster, but would be less likely to get into the little spots as easily as the smaller pins so I wonder what the trade-off is between them.Comment
