I don't clean my brass. I shape it, cut it, ream the primer pocket and fill that bitch up..... I'm more function than fashion I reckon....
I did it that way for many years , and for a bolt action rifle that's all it needs. These days I make pretty reloads . Most folks think they're factory. They don't shoot any better but they are nice and shiny .
Luck is the phenomena created when Preparation meets Opportunity .
