It's great to wash your fired brass first if you possibly get unwanted pickup brass mixed up with yours.. Like that twin flashole milsurp rifle stuff, or that weird maxx tech 9mm (or whatever the brand is) with the thick case walls and the step below the case mouth. The first step in culling it out before you put it through a sizer and damaging your gear is to be able to see it, and it's harder to see if it's dirty. I clean mine with or without pins first, half an hour, dry, and check for stuff to biff. Then lube and size, and back in with the pins. Dry it and it's ready to go, and super shiny.
