Do you clean your brass every time you reload it? Every few times? Wait until it looks really bad?
I've been reloading 38spl and just give the case a wipe-down with a cloth I use for gun cleaning before I resize. I use a carbide resizing die. I'm on reload #4 with my current batch of brass and haven't tumbled the cases and they're starting to look kinda gross. The cases are still in otherwise good condition, and I'm using target loads (148gr HWBC, 2.7gr Bullseye).
I'm going to invest in a tumbler soon, but was just wondering how often other people clean pistol brass.
