Reloading Tip

[rbahri5206]

hey guys just wanted to remind all the new reloaders not to tumble .45acp, .40 cal, and 9mm in the same load or your gonna spend a lot of time with a pair of pliers trust me was doing it for like an hour

I've never have that issues .. occasionally I get few 9mm that stuck in 45 but nothing bad .. im using small hornady tumbler with walnut media and I dont put more than 400 each time .

after tumbling em . do you put em in separator ? how do you separate brass from media

[Whiterabbit]

also 7x57 and 460S&W. based on case size, it could theoretically happen to cartridges like 30-06/270 when mixed with 45 colt or 454, too.

you can how ever tumble

380acp with 9mm and 38 super

38 special with 357 mag and 357 sig

40 S&W with 10mm

and 45ACP, 45 gap, 45 long colt, and 454 casull can all tumble together

Ive never had to use pliers to get them apart.

I had about 30 stuck in one another that I could not pull apart, there was a lot more but most of the I was able to pull, when I dump my tumbler I have a large tupperware and a vent with mesh on it that I got from homedepot, I set the vent on top of the Tupperware

Oh I know that feeling & lesson was learned only I lost at least 20 .44 mag brass I only tumble one caliber at a time now.

the only thing i tumble together is 45acp and .223 that's it

[CaffeinFeign]

I made that mistake the very first day I was starting reloading....I ran 45acp with 9mm.... .....never have I done it again...

[bohoki]

yep i tumble after i sort them so why the heck would i mix them back up

[stilly]

LoL. I figured that out on day 1 of wet process rolling.

I only mix yellow with yellow, black with black and blue with blue and seperate rifle from pistol and 38/357 from 40cal...
