An hour in the tumbler? I shake for no more than a few minutes for a solid coat. Another point to remember is moisture (think raining cats and dogs outside) can affect the powder and the coating. If you want a good solid coat, you need to get a technique down but if you just want some plastic on the outside of the bullets it doesn't matter.
If you do try the shake and bake, use a heavier #5 container with a good snap on lid otherwise you'll need to do it outside and pick up the mess. I tried the whipped topping container 1 time only. Remember you can recoat if necessary and you are correct that a sizing die will mash it right down.
This is actually enjoyable to me and I experimented and asked questions and read all I could. My first attempts were no where as good a what I can do now. You can do it too!
