NICE!
Procovert, where did you find the plastic, it looks like it fits perfectly for that caliber. Does it come smaller and larger with the holes.
Thanks
Thanks
Just put them on a towel and spread them out on a flat table with a fan blowing on them. It dries them out quicker that you would think. Pistol brass will dry in 3 to 4 hours inside and out. They are dry to on the outside in just a few minutes. Rifle brass takes about 24 hours. You can start sizing them sooner if you don't mind a little water in the primer pockets.
I just use a old food dehydrator, quick, easy and done in no time.
I tried one of those but they don't make them lager enough for the amount of brass I process, LOL.
I cut the bottom off of an MTM reload carry box primer down and it holds 100 rounds or less, then I use a hair dryer and by heating the brass it will dry in just a couple of minutes. They get really warm this way, but I don't reload them next, I use others I have prepped already and put these in a plastic shell box holder and put the prep date on it. Make sure you put a paper towel under the box to keep the water off anything important.
amazon.com , they have all sizes. these hold ALOT of cases for drying but to me it was really as much about mass inspection of case mouth and flash holes. i used to dry on towells too,this guarantees no water is pooled in random cases.
If you can't find it on Amazon, you don't need it.
lol truth. i love prime, wish ida done it yrs ago. its great fer a hillbilly n the stix
