[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2963325, member: 313"] I rarely clean the outside of my cases except to use some 0000 wool on the case neck. If I decide to clean cases, I use an STM tumbler with the traditional Dawn & Lem Shine. However, I only tumble them for 15-20min. The cases get clean, and the carbon remains in the necks. Having really shiny brass requires extended time in the tumbler. Too much time in the tumbler dings up the case mouths and removes the carbon from the inside of the necks. One day I'll get around to trying the Orkan rice idea. It would save from having to dry cases after cleaning. [/QUOTE]
