Lizard Bedding??

That’s all I use. Got it on Amazon I think. Been working on the same bag for 4 years.
I've used the walnut lizard bedding, but there are other alternatives these days. The walnut lizard bedding works pretty well for simply cleaning cases. However, corn cob is better for polishing. I don't advise the corn cob lizard bedding, because it's made from the whole ground cob. It's preferable to use only the woody part of the cob, as in blasting media. I prefer corn cob 20/40 blasting media. The 20/40 is less apt to clog primer pockets. You can get a 40# bag of #30 at Grainger for about $34.
that plus a scoop of NU-Finish polish was all I used until I started wet tumbling
Lizard bedding is all I use.
Got mine at Petsmart I think.
It works really well and pretty cheap too.

How much does that lizard bedding cost per lb? When I looked it up it was sold by quart, and I had no way of comparing it to other walnut media elsewhere. Also, I am assuming it doesn't dust? The stuff I got on clearance at HF dust severly.

looks like a 5qt bag weighs 7.5 pounds. it does not dust. I've had the same stuff in my tumbler for over 2 years and I tumble a good bit of brass
I use 20-40 corn cob from Walmart.com. About $37.00 for 45lbs delivered to you door. One bag lasts me over a year but I tumble over 700K per yer.
When I bought some it was in a bag, probably 10lbs I'm guessing. I've been using the same bag for over a year and still have some left. Like jom2953 said, it doesn't dust up and works really well.I can't remember what I paid for it but I know it wasn't much or I wouldn't have bought it.....cause I'm cheap
That’s a lot of brass you tumble. I’m in awe
