Re: Lyman Corncob Plus Problems
So I found an efficient and hands off method to unclog my flash holes...throw the cases in a Folgers can with a lid and let them bounce around in the bed of my truck for half a week. Almost all the cases are clear. My 3K+ rounds of prepped 9X19 is almost complete.
Still no response from Lyman.

Re: Lyman Corncob Plus Problems
That's one way to do it. Probably could fill the bottom of your pickup bed with any media and it get it done.

Re: Lyman Corncob Plus Problems
All I was doing was getting the flash holes unclogged of Lyman media. They were already tumbled.

Re: Lyman Corncob Plus Problems
Wouldn't running them through the media separator take all that out of the pockets, and it would save gas too.

Re: Lyman Corncob Plus Problems
No, as documented with photos the Lyman stuff I got on my own and the stuff recommended here plugged an overwhelming majority of the primer pockets AND had to be dumped out of the necks vigorously.killian6pk wrote:Wouldn't running them through the media separator take all that out of the pockets, and it would save gas too.
I have an RCBS separator. It's fine with fat pistol brass. It won't unpack the crap out of the primer pockets on rifle brass or smaller pistol brass. I don't waste gas drying my super clean and shiny washed brass that I don't bother with stainless pins cleaning or unpacking primer pockets...I just drive to where I need to with it back there. Works for me, especially since I will likely NEVER use the stuff again anyway. Well, NEVER is a strong word.

Re: Lyman Corncob Plus Problems
It's an open country mind set . People look at me like I'm nuts because we go 30 miles to have dinner with my Mom twice a week and 35 to have lunch an do some shopping every week here in Arkansas . In opposite directions so there's no save a trip .
Out west we were 75 miles from Walmart and for most of a year saved 85+ cents a gallon on gas going there took 6 gallons round trip 18 gallons in the truck , 25 for the other one . 1 gallon in 5 was free ....... Mind set when everything is less than 10 miles away and it takes 2 hours to drive 90 miles it's a big deal . When it's 40 miles across the metro or 100 for dinner and a movie and it takes 1 hr 15 and 100 miles between services it just isn't .
