    Primer Pocket Cleaning

    I use one of these chucked in a Dremel: Hold Dremel in left hand, put case on brush with right, give the case a twirl with your fingers and move to the next one. Takes less time to do than describe.

    Buy the Mec-Gar. Mec-Gar is an OEM mag supplier for several companies, including SIG-Sauer. I've had no problems with a Mec-Gar mag for my P226, or one for an old P89 I used to have.
