I figure the ammo in my truck gun gets more 'tumbling' in a year or two of riding around that an hour in the tumbler is going to cause...ghostrider wrote:>So you tumble finished ammunition?
I would recommend against doing that, however its one of those controversial things like carrying reloads. Lots of people say don't do it without any hard evidence of it being a bad idea.

One of these days I'm going to take a hundred pistol rounds (probably 38 spl and shoo them in my 357 revolver for safety factors), pull 20 for controls, and start tumbling for a few days. Pull 5 a day and run them over a chrony to check for variances... Several fairly reliable sources I know have done similar things to rifle ammo and reported negligible effect until a week+ is reached.
