Thread: I like this ultrasonic cleaner!

Had a couple of goes at reloading for the first time last year, and really enjoyed it other than a couple of bits. One being cleaning the neck and two being cleaning out the primer pockets after resizing. So being the lazy fella I am I looked at alternatives and decided it would be easier to knock out the primers then clean the brass in an ultrasonic cleaner. So after finding a cheap cleaner and getting hold of a decapping die I'm into it. Think I can just about throw away the primer pocket brush.

Now the job is still fun but a hell of a lot less tedious. By the way being one of those guys that squeaks when he walks I decided not to change the cleaning mix with each batch, and I can't tell any difference between the first and fourth batch. Takes about 20minutes to run a batch of 25-30 308 or 243 brass. Now to the next stages ...

Will I need more brass? I've only got about 750 pieces for the 243 and 300 pieces for the 308. Definitely need more for the 223, only about 10 pieces. About half way through cleaning it all.
