Stainless pins give the best results, but the process is a bit of a PITA.

If you want a sift pan that fits over a 5 gal bucket, its yours. I used it for a year untill I got tired of shaking media out of rifle cases like a salt shaker.
For pistol it worked fine.
mapper.. thanks.. I'll get with you next week when I am off !

What press did you decide on?
lee pro 1000, much less painless price point than the big blue. Will upgrade if I keep at it.

I like using the Lyman 2500 ultra sonic cleaner,cleans inside outside primer pockets also.After I dry them throw them into corncob media for about 10 minutes looks like brand new brass.
(nam era) yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for I am the meanest SOB in the valley!
Even being a "big blue" guy, I think that was a wise decision. Just don't forget to do due diligence; check it drops powder in each cartridge case, make sure the finished product chambers in the firearm you plan to use them in. I do that to this day . . . and I am a big blue guy.![]()
I'd rather be lucky than good, but I'd rather KNOW I'm good than HOPE to get lucky.
Thanks to Rumbler, AirGator, AB and others for input and advice.
I have all the components and the equipment.
I hope to make some test rounds between now and sunday.
AB said my reloading bench would not win me any prizes for wood working.
haters gonna hate !
