I like my Dillon 2001. Heck for stout, and has done many many cases for me without issue.

I’ve been using the Dillons, have the big one and the 750. They’ve been great. Tried the Frankford Arsenal, besides being a bit small it didn’t do as good a job. I had a Dillon for 20+ years and went back to it.

Check out Harbor Fright. You shall save some money. Just my two cents Tommy Mc

Everything from Harbor Freight seems to be on the cheap side to me. Have used the Dillon for decades with no problems or complaints.

Dillon, nothing else close.

My Lyman is about 12 years old and still running like a charm and I use it a lot.

Harbor freight has lasted me 8+ yrs.
Lizard media & dryer strips.

Dryer strips? Never heard of doing that, do they help with polishing?

They are used to reduce dust. Cut one sheet into postage stamp size pieces.

 

[Catgunguy]

Go with the Dillon.

I bought a used Midway (blue tub) in 2002 (??) tumbled a LOT .204, .223, .22/250. .6BR, .22BR.....still going. (I have a new Lyman 1200 as a backup..)

I have a pair of Thumler’s that I bought used and they work very well! I’ld check them out

 

[Infrequent Shooter]

SR737 nano, bought one used, works like a champ. very high quality but I have never used another kind or brand. I think it is out of production, but I would definitely buy it again.

 

[Ccrider]

I have an older RCBS bought back in 2007. Don’t think you can wear it out.

Harbor Freight is a piece of trash

I use the wet method for initial cleaning with the primers out. After running through the sizing die, then they go in the Dillon tumbler for about 45 minutes or so. This removes all the sizing lube from the brass.

I have been using the same Thumlers Vib since the 80's, maybe earlier..

 

[liseo]

I have a old RCBS and one new Frankford Arsenal. Frankford is collecting dust. RCBS works way better

I have a Vibra-shine from the same period still pluggin' away.
