Anyone have experience wet SS pin tumbling 17 Rem cases?

[jepp2]

Just acquired my first 17 Rem. I intend to wet tumble the cases, but those case necks are pretty small. Before I give it a try and potentially find the brass full of pins that don't want to come out, thought I would ask.

I haven't had any issues tumbling 20 Bobcat brass with the 40° shoulder, but the case mouth is much larger.

I use a rattle bucket and corn cob media to clean my 17 Remington brass. Compared to other rounds it is a bit more labor intensive.

I never gave an update. I didn't want to have to change SS tumbling media if I didn't have to. So I put one 17 Remington in with other brass when I tumbled and separated the pins. It worked absolutely perfect and now I wet tumble them when necessary. Appreciate the input.
