I am about to start reloading and have gone over the internet on the question of how to prep fired brass. I am not planning on using a tumbler or media. The answers generally include a bucket of water plus a) simple green, b) tide, c) a commercial brass cleaning agent like Isso's, then stirring for 5 minutes (after removing the primers), then drying - in the air, with a blow dryer, or on the tennis shoe rack of a front loading clothes dryer. I omitted the recommendation to put your brass in a bag and throw it in the clothes washer - I am in enough trouble with the rags I use to detail my car.
Does anyone have a favorite method or can you recommend a product to use. Since I am only loading small quantities (Bushmaster 450), the amount of hand labor involved is probably not an issue.
Many thanks.
