I'm fairly new to reloading. Buying things here and there to get going more. Recently I bought a brass tumbler from Cabela's (Cabela's Case Tumbler Kit 400 TUMBLER KIT). Overall I think it was a good deal and I like it. Questions below.
Every time I use the polish I find the brass nice a shiny afterward. But... I end up with 1/2 dozen cases caked with the polish inside. I need to use a screw driver to get the crap out. The directions say to use 2 cap fulls. Is that normal? Am I using too much or just need to deal with this side effect?
Also, right now I'm reloading 9MM, 38 Special, 357, and 45 ACP. The first 3 seem to tumble fine together. When I added the 45 ACP things didn't turn out so well. Lots of polish, corn media and cases stuck inside each other. Do folks here tumble different case sizes separately?
