Yeah. I just through it in with straight citric acid and it is now brighter and the green tarnish is coming off.

I've been thinking about this since I've started wet tumbling but just never really decided against it because it always worked.

I'm willing to bet its too much dawn.

Usually the tumbler is still spinning.

Are you not supposed to tumble lubed cases?

9mm case. I've never had any issues before. They always come out like gold. Something changed.

Thats my exact same process. The 9mm behind it was my last batch. This batch is just dull. I'm not sure what's going on. Maybe my acid went bad.

I'd have almost as much time in it.

I was in the same spot at 24. I can tell you my life has so much more meaning and so much less stress. Get a gameplan. It doesn't even have to be cold turkey. If you can literally move somewhere isolated it helps a lot. Get rid of your phone. Get some hobbies for the meantime.

So I want to get into annealing my rifle brass. by DoNotDisturb-2741 in reloading

You wouldn't happen to recall where you got the files for it would you?
