Posts: 41 fguffey - The article did state to rinse thoroughly and if I’m reading it right it also suggests a final rinse in soapy water.

Final rinse in soapy water? I do not know their agenda, my agenda, I prefer getting rid of the residual effect of anything, such as acid and or soap, I want nothing between the case and chamber but smoothness, anything that exist has weight and takes up space, if it has weight and takes up space it is ‘matter’, if it has weight and takes up space it matters to me, again, I want nothing between the case and chamber but air. not a lot of air just a small amount. Back to the beginning, in the old days the cleaning solution required rinsing in boiling water twice. Logic? Deductive reasoning? The method was used by the government and the shooting public, I do not have to clean cases without rinsing to know there has to be a problem created when acid is used to clean cases, again, it only happens to my cases. And? There had to be a reason they required rinsing in boiling water twice was required, and they had a minimum of time set for each boiling, and the rinse was not be be used when rinsing the next batch.
There is only so much information available, I have to decide just how much of that information I am going to disregard, my part in cleaning cases that were cheap because of condition, of all the reloaders that had an opportunity to purchases dirty cases made it easy for me, again 1,400 cases for $14.00. Once fired, choice, use vinegar for 15 minutes or tumble for days or spin. Cleaning in vinegar for 15 minutes and tumble for a maximum of 2 hours. I have used the cases for years and everything.
Residue, I tumble after cleaning the worst of cases.
If there was a curiosity among reloaders one would ask, “Where did the ideal of using an acid to clean cases come from”
