Out of boredom because of a monsoon here at the coast, I deprimed a hundred .45colt brass,and started cleaning the pockets with a cordless drill....carefully.
I was AMAZED at how much crud can build up over time ! I think most of the 'blame' is the low-powered 'cowboy level' load I shoot.
Ran into Reloader Fred ,at the range, and he said 'yep,it's a pita,but should be done as part of the loading process.
It shall be done ! from now on ,especially for match ammo.
anyone else taking the time to clean primer pockets in handgun ammo ?
my walnut/corn dry media in a tumbler does nada to them btw.
