| Didnt know where else to ask this. I traded a guy for a SAW ammo can full of mixed 22lr it is kind of dirty there was no top on the can. Can I safely run this thru my tumbler with corn cob media in it to clean it up? |
| I would be hesitant to subject any loaded rounds to the vibration and banging associated with a tumbler... The fact that the primer is completely exposed on rimfire rounds certainly makes this a bit more risky. Will you ever get a hit hard enough to set one off? Probably not...but is it worth it? Not to me. If the ammo runs fine, who cares if it is shiny. |
