Thread: Dry your tumbled brass thoroughly

I wet tumbled a little over 1000 45acp cases last night, batched them according to numbers of reloads, one batch didn’t spend enough time drying in the dehydrator and then in the oven with the fan on……..so when I put them through the Dillon I didn’t notice one batch there was still moisture in the primer pocket……hence today I’d say conservatively 20% went click followed by “Fark!” Tap roll rack…..BUT my groups did tighten……as it was a surprise when it went bang and I could really dial in on my flinch / grip when it went click
